Q:
What exactly is satellite TV?

A:Satellite TV is simply another way of delivering multi-channel television. Today’s most widespread method is cable TV. Unlike cable TV however, satellite TV requires that you first buy or rent a mini-dish and a receiver. The dish receives signals from a satellite orbiting the earth and the receiver converts those signals into the programming you will watch on your TV.
