ISTRIBUTION
, the over-the-air
antenna needs to be connected to your TV distribution equipment. When adding this
connection, the FCC requires that you install appropriate equipment between the
over-the-air antenna/cable and the satellite TV receiver to prevent you from
accidentally retransmitting DISH Network programming (see FCC Compliance in the
Appendix). TV distribution equipment devices include coax panels, amplifiers, or
Super Home Nodes, and are available through many companies.
•
You can add local over-the-air channels and assign them network affiliations. Once
you have done this, you can access the channels via the Program Guide or the
Browse Banner in much the same way as you would satellite channels.
