Viewing DIRECTV is to experience television like you've never dreamed possible. DIRECTV offers
more programming than any other medium on the planet, and all with superb clarity of the digital
picture and sound. Plus with more than 225 channels to choose from, including local channels
in nearly two dozen major metropolitan areas, DIRECTV is one of the fastest-growing
success stories in consumer electronics history.
DIRECTV uses a series of high-power satellites that hover in a fixed (geosynchronous) orbit positioned over the United States. Because the signal originates 22,300 miles above Earth, a single channel beamed down from space completely covers the entire 48 contiguous United States. All programming originates at the Hughes's state-of-the-art facility in Colorado. There, the signals are encoded and uplinked to the satellites before returning to Earth and to your receiving system equipment. This whole transmission process takes approximately two seconds.
Here's your chance to surf through nearly 100 entertainment services from sports and news
to blockbuster movies and children's shows. Including 32 premium movie channels, 55 pay-per-view
choices a day, over a dozen news and information outlets, and more than 30 commercial-free
digital-music channels.
Whether your passion is home decorating and gardening (HGTV), high technology (ZDTV),
cartoons (Toon Disney), or car racing (Speedvision), DIRECTV will hold your attention.
In addition, an amazing assortment of sports subscription packages deliver annually up to
4,000 professional and collegiate games in football, basketball, hockey, baseball, and
soccer!
Digital TV eliminate ghosts, static, snow, and poor-quality video. When you see a digital TV program, it will be exactly the same as the one that left the TV station (so long as there aren't major obstacles in the way): colors are crisp, text is easier to read, and the higher quality audio embedded into the signal heightens the viewing experience.
One look at a new high-definition television, and you'll immediately see a quantum leap in the picture quality from today's sets, whether you're used to broadcast, cable, or even DVD picture quality. The image seen on the best models has up to 10 times the detail of a standard set. Watching a big football game makes you feel like you're 10 rows up on the 50-yard line as you see every bit of the field, even the sweat on the quarterback's face. Not only is the picture more lifelike, (think looking through a squeaky clean clear picture window) the best digital TVs have wider, rectangular screens similiar to movie theaters. And most deliver the same Dolby Digital surround sound that thrills audiences at the local cineplex.
Digital television is doing for TV what CD players did for music. Simply put, it is revolutionizing TV viewing, just as the compact disc changed forever music listening.
