1.2 System Compatibility
1.3 Direct Broadcast Satellite Overview
Direct Broadcast Service (DBS) satellites broadcast audio, video and
data information from satellites located 22,000 miles in space. A
receiving station, such as the SATPOS20D, should include a dish and
satellite receiver to receive the signals and process them for use by the
consumer audio and video equipment. The system requires a clear
view of the satellite in the sky to maximize the signal reception.

The SATPOS20D satellite antenna is fully compatible with Digital Video
Broadcasting (DVB) satellites, as well as OPTUS D1 satellite. At
present, there is one Direct Broadcast Satellite position over New
Zealand.
