1 This means that any satellite dish which is positioned to receive these services will be capable of receiving

Freesat, with the addition of a suitable receiver (or Television with

receiver built in)

Sat4free - Satellite dish

1 For users who do not currently have a satellite dish, Freesat offers an installation service which is made

available through retailers and which is advertised in a leaflet included with Freesat receivers. A suitable dish may also be installed by the user or a non-Freesat-affiliated

installer.

Satellite dish

1 A 'satellite dish' is a dish-shaped type of parabolic antenna designed to

receive microwaves from communications satellites, which transmit data transmissions or

Broadcasting|broadcasts, such as satellite television.

Satellite dish - Principle of operation

1 Direct broadcast satellite dishes use an LNBF, which integrates the feedhorn with the LNB

Satellite dish - Principle of operation

1 The theoretical gain (Antenna gain|directive gain) of a dish increases as the frequency increases. The actual

gain depends on many factors including surface finish, accuracy of shape, feedhorn matching. A typical

value for a consumer type 60cm satellite dish at 11.75GHz is 37.50

dB.

Focal cloud - Satellite dish effects

1 A focal cloud can render a satellite dish rather inefficient in relation to its

size in specific frequencies. If the imperfections are formed in a way that the phase shifts of reflected

waves, at a large portion of the dish, are near 180 degrees between them and the feed horn, this results in self-cancellation of the specific frequency.

Automatic Tracking Satellite Dish

1 'Automatic Tracking Satellite Dishes' are satellite dishes used

while a vehicle is in motion. Automatic tracking satellite dishes

utilize gyroscopes, GPS position Sensors, and uses unique satellite

identification data and an integrated Digital Video Broadcasting|DVB

decoder to aid in identification of the satellite that it is pointing at.

Satellite dishes - History

1 Parabolic antennas referred to as dish antennas had been in use long before

satellite television. The term satellite dish was coined in 1978 during the beginning of the satellite television industry, and came to

refer to dish antennas that send and/or receive signals from communications

satellites. Taylor Howard of San Andreas, California built a large dish in 1976 and

became the first person to receive satellite television signals using it.

Satellite dishes - History

1 The satellite dishes of the early 1980s were in diameter and made of fibreglass or solid aluminum or steel

Satellite dishes - History

1 Satellite dishes made of wire mesh first came out in the mid-1980s, and were at first in diametre. The size shrunk to a few years later, and continued to get smaller reducing to feet by the late 1980s and by the early 1990s. Larger dishes continued to be used, however. In December 1988 Luxembourg's

Astra 1A satellite began transmitting television signals on the Ku band|Ku band

analogue. This allowed small dishes (20cm) to be used for the first time.
