DTH stands for Direct to Home and is a service which broadcasts satellite channels

on our television sets.  This is a path breaking technology which has spread all across
the world and allows us to enjoy uninterrupted coverage of channels and networks
from around the globe.  If you are someone who was using cable connection till now
and wants to switch to DTH, then you must know ways to install DTH connection
either on your own or by calling a service provider. The following are some tips for
DTH installation that would prove useful.

1. Install using a professional service provider

If you are interested on doing this task with professional help, then the first thing you
need to do is to select a service provider. This can be done by reading and comparing
the plans and channels offered by different DTH providers. Check the prices,
features, channel numbers and names and other details and then decide which ones
seems the best to you. Once selected, contact the service provider and request for a
professional visit so that the set top box, dish and other connections can be made.

 Install DTH connection on your own

The first thing to do is to buy all the items and tools needed for connecting the
network such as dish, set top box, remote control, proper wires and hand tools. Find a
secure spot for the dish antenna on your terrace or your balcony. It must be
unobstructed and should be the right angle to receive signal.  Assemble the dish
according to Skew and Azimuth settings and then connect a cable to the dish.  Mount
it on a building or a pole. Make sure that you run a direct cable line between the
receiver and the satellite dish.

Now the next step is to connect the receiver to the TV and switch both of them on. 
Now select the options in the following sequence. Menu>System
Setup>Installation>Check switch >Check>OK and then view the signal of the
satellite. Adjust the dish to get the perfect signal and align it properly.  Remember
that the signals can go as high as 125 and as low as 75.  The higher the signal, the
better it will be for you.
