Satellite TV functions by using a system of communication satellites which are in geostationary orbit. The satellites catch digital signals and relay them back down to earth to your satellite dish or receiver. Your satellite dish or receiver converts digital signals in the same way that a digital converter box does, which removes any analog problems.
