Subscription To Directv® Programming And Ant/Cable-Only Operation - Sony SAT-HD300 Operating Instructions Manual

6-4. Subscription to DIRECTV® programming and ANT/CABLE-Only operation
The DIRECTV® HD Receiver is designed to receive signals from DIRECTV, ANT and/or CABLE
sources. If you are a DIRECTV customer, you can enjoy programming provided by DIRECTV.
You can also receive the analog and digital over-the-air broadcasts, with the benefit of the
Advanced Program Guide™ which is an integrated electronic program guide. The Advanced
Program Guide provides program listings and information on analog and digital channels from
over-the-air local stations as well as DIRECTV channels. You can easily navigate and tune to
hundreds of channels from various signal sources with the Advanced Program Guide.
If you don't subscribe to DIRECTV® programming, however, the function of the DIRECTV HD
Receiver will be limited to receiving signals only from ANT and/or CABLE. You can still enjoy
HD services provided by over-the-air digital broadcast along with the conventional analog
broadcast. Without the DIRECTV service, however, no electronic program guide is available.
