DIGITAL BROADCAST
SYSTEM SATELLITE(S)
INTRODUCTION
Welcome to a new era in RV Satellite reception. A
combination of the latest computer and microprocessor
technology makes the Winegard Pinnacle
®
satellite
positioner and your digital satellite system receiver the
easiest to operate. A simple button stroke will
automatically direct the antenna to the satellite.
HOW DOES DIGITAL SATELLITE
SYSTEM TV WORK?
Satellite programming originates from an “uplink” facility.
The DBS satellites receive the uplink signal, amplify it
and then transmit it back to earth in the Ku frequency
band.
This signal is received by a satellite antenna whose
shape reflects and concentrates the signal to the LNBF
attached to the antenna. The LNBF is located at the
“focal point” of signal reflection, that is, the point at which
the maximum amount of signal is effectively
concentrated. The LNBF amplifies and converts the
signal to the 950 to 1450 MHz range. The signal is then
passed thru a coaxial cable to the positioner, then to the
receiver where individual channel selection and
processing take place.
