programs. This Digital Satellite Receiver also has a RF OUT jack, which enables the
unit to be hooked up to a television without A/V inputs. The Digital Satellite Receiver,
which receives digital signals, has the ability to convert the digital broadcast into
National Television System Committee (NTSC)** signals that a conventional television
