Satellite dishes use the c-band frequencies of the audiovisual spectrum to provide television programming for users looking beyond cable or network TV offerings. Many satellite networks provide a large variety of movie, sports and other entertainment options with each menu of channels. Some common specialties include adult channels (from parenting to pay-per-view erotica), children's entertainment (educational family and cartoon networks), arts and literacy selections, business and news networks, and variety channels which offer a little of everything. Many satellite packages offer commercial-free programming or TIVO options which allow users to record programs and watch them later, free of interruption. Satellite service may be paid for on a weekly or monthly basis; installation costs add a one-time fee, but if the cable service in your area is expensive or unimaginative, satellite dishes may be the answer for your household.
