Introduction

Congratulations! You have purchased one of
Winegard’s latest developments in the mobile satel-
lite reception product line —the Movin’ View

TM

. This

system, used with your digital satellite receiver, will
deliver the best reception possible using GPS (Glo-
bal Positioning System) and precision gyroscopes.

How  Does Digital Satellite
TV Work?

Satellite programming originates from an “uplink”
facility on Earth — the facility receives many signals
from different sources, combines the signals digitally
and transmits to the satellites. The satellites (22,300
miles above Earth) receive the uplink signal, amplify
it and then transmit it back to earth in
the Ku frequency band. This signal
is concentrated and reflected to
the LNBF* located at the “focal
point” of the dish. The LNBF ampli-
fies and converts the signal to the 950
to 1450 MHz range. The signal is then
passed through a coaxial cable to the re-
ceiver where individual channel selection
and processing take place.
