What is Eastern Arc dish Network?

What is Eastern Arc dish Network?

Eastern Arc is DISH Network’s new satellite orbital constellation (at the 61.5°, 72.7°, and 77° orbital locations) which will create additional bandwidth to help us offer more HD channels, especially HD locals.

What direction does dish TV have to face?

The horizontal alignment refers to the position of the satellite emitting the signal. Therefore, your dish needs to point either to the east or west, in the direction where you wish to receive the signal.

What is the difference between western arc and Eastern Arc?

The first arc, the Western Arc, uses 3 satellites (110°, 119°, and 129°) to broadcast DISH programming. The newer arc, the Eastern Arc, also uses 3 satellites — 61.5°, 72.7°, and 77°. Depending on where you are, you may need to use a specific arc to receive the DISH local TV stations that are nearby.
