  All About Satellite   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
Also, when a satellite needs to be replaced (the average lifetime of a satellite is about 15 years) the replacement satellite can be put in the same position, so that when the first one 'dies' and falls back to earth, the next one is already in place and continues to broadcast the same stations.
In addition to a satellite tuner, one may also need an additional antenna positioner (in case of a polar mount dish), a descrambler box and a smart card reader in order to receive encoded transmissions, all of which can be built into the satellite tuner.
All satellite tuners are equipped with a special connection for the existing antenna or cable, which makes replugging unnecessary if you want to switch from conventional to satellite TV and vice versa.

Since the commercials are usually added by the network, the backhaul has no commercials, and you get to hear the announcers talk and see them play with the video effects when the signal is not being broadcast to the world (before, after the event and during commercial breaks).
Satellites only "appear to be stationary because of their location in the Clarke Belt, in reality they are whirring about the planet, and their orbits become eccentric if left alone.
Inclined orbit birds are satellites that "wobble" north and south of the vary in the vertical plane, as explained in the previous paragraph.

 CTV Atlantic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
CTV Atlantic (formerly known as ATV) is a system of four television stations in the Canadian Maritimes, owned and operated by the CTV Television Network.
A side effect of this is that the newscast often includes stories about things like local politics that can be of little interest to viewers in other parts of the region, and a common complaint among residents of both New Brunswick and Nova Scotia is that CTV News focuses too much on the other province.
However, CTV Atlantic has had some of the highest ratings of any local newscasts in Canada, although its presence and viewing audience is somewhat less in Prince Edward Island mainly as a result of competition from a local CBC station which provides the province's only PEI-specific newscast.
