Welcome

ELCOME
Thank you for choosing DISH Network. You are about to experience the excitement and
convenience of our Direct Broadcast Satellite (DBS) service, which delivers the very best picture
and sound quality. DISH Network consistently provides the latest products and satellite-delivered
services—with high performance, ease of operation, and a wide variety of entertainment options.
Your new DISH Network receiver has two built-in satellite TV tuners supporting viewing in standard
or high definition. In addition, an over-the-air (OTA) tuner is also available. After attaching an
antenna to the OTA tuner input on your receiver back panel (see details on page 98 and any
installation instructions that came with your OTA antenna), you can watch programs on digital
channels received over the air, selecting them from the Program Guide much the same way you
do with satellite-delivered TV channels. Additionally, a host of other functions make your new
receiver one of the most versatile and exciting devices in home entertainment.
This satellite receiver lets you decide how you watch TV. You can experience audio and video with
full digital quality. You can create reminders for your favorite programs and not miss any of the
action, or you can record a program on your VCR to watch later.
