directtv General information
directtv typically uses a fixed 18-inch diameter dish antenna to receive its signals. Slightly larger, 18?24-inch elliptical antennas which receive signals from three geostationary satellite positions simultaneously are becoming more common as directtv attempt to squeeze more programming onto their growing systems. DTV is now installing a dish that has five LNBs for HDTV programming and local channels in selected markets. These systems receive signals from up to 5 separate satellites in both the Ku-band and Ka-band.
directtv offers local channels to more than 94%[citation needed] of the United States including Hawaii and Alaska.
As of November 30, 2005 directtv has over 15 million customers in the U.S. and 1.57 million in Latin America. 2005 revenues are $3.15 billion.[citation needed]
The Economist has suggested that News Corporation would eventually like to merge directtv with Sky, its British satellite operation, and possibly its Asian Star and Australian Foxtel networks to form a global satellite TV company.[citation needed]
In late July 2006, directtv added several channels to their online guide that are apparently not available to viewers — these include UK-based Sky Sports One, Sky One and Sky News. The three are channels that are generally available to satellite television viewers in the United Kingdom, though Sky News has been made available in other countries internationally.
