What is MPEG-2?
M
PEG-2 is the next satellite TV adventure that many longtime C-band enthusiasts are embrac-
ing. Like early C-band, MPEG-2 is an array of programming you can see nowhere else. And best
of all, MPEG-2 programming is totally free.
MPEG-2 signals are constantly changing. You might tune into a channel that was vacant yesterday
and find feeds of popular major drama or comedy television series, sports, international program-
ming and more. Channels that are here today may not be around tomorrow; or they might be on a
different frequency. To make the most of what MPEG-2 has to offer, be sure to watch for these
changes. To find the latest free-to-air offerings (including Transponder Frequencies, Symbol Rates
and Polarity), go to the Resource Page on Skyvision’s web site,

How do I connect my MPEG-2 receiver?
N
ot all satellite receivers are exactly the same. However, the hookup diagrams should give you
enough information to integrate your new MPEG-2 receiver into your existing system.
For a system with a C-band LNB only:
Connect the coax from your C-band LNB to the
I F I N
input on your MPEG-2 receiver. Connect
a coax cable from the
IF O U T
output on the MPEG-2 receiver to the
C - B A N D L N B I N
input
on your analog or 4DTV receiver. Run a coax from
OUT TO TV
to your analog or 4DTV
receiver,
ANTENNA IN
. If your TV has another coaxial or A/V input, you can use these
instead of the coaxial to the
ANTENNA IN
.

NOTE:
If you have a
4DTV Sidecar, see the
Skyvision insert,
Connecting Your 4DTV
Digital Sidecar,
for
connection
instructions
.
Even in a
system that includes an
MPEG-2 receiver, the
C- and Ku-band LNBs
loop through the
Sidecar as described in
that insert.
