3 Premium channels ( HBO, SHOWTIME, Cinamax, movie channels)
4 Pricing
5 Installation( Dish Network comes with free installation)
6 Type of singal being used (True digtal, analog or hybrid)
I think you get what I'm saying.
Singals used by satellite and cable
For instance with most cable companies singals that are used are true digtal, however the singal can not be called true digital for the reason the singal will be
weaker. See, cable is not a direct broadcast ( has to go through many substation before it reaches you home making the singal
weaker), satellite cable is a direct broadcast, meaning the singals comes straight from the orbiting satellite to your home.
Satellite singals are considered to best for just this reason, without the interference from other substation, the
sound is better, the picture clearing making your view experience more pleasurable.
Television resolution and HD recievers
In the 1930 standards were set for television giving us the terns that we used to define one of america
greatest past time, television. Before HD came along there was your standard resolution having a 704 pixels by 480 lines allowing on 24 frames per second, inturn giving a not so good picture. Over
time technology has advanced allowing for HDTV to give twice the quality.
