The Sphere SSA-850 RV Satellite Antenna system was designed for its ease of use. This
has been programmed to locate the OPTUS C1/D3 series satellite for receiving of TV
broadcast signals. Two Operation zones were added to aid in the search time,
OPTUS C1/D3 EAST and OPTUS C1/D3 WEST. The Antenna unit initialization and
satellite acquisition is completely hassle free.
Receiving Satellite TV Signals
Television satellites are located in fixed positions above the Earth’s equator and beam
TV signals down to certain regions of the planet. To receive TV signals from a satellite,
you must be located within that satellite’s unique coverage area. In addition, since TV
satellites are located above the equator, the antenna must have a clear view of the sky to
receive satellite TV signals. Anything that stands between the antenna and the satellite
can block the signal, resulting in lost reception. Common causes of blockage include
trees, buildings, and mountains. Heavy rain, ice, or snow might also temporarily
interrupt satellite signals.
