What is DTH ?

                   

               Direct to Home is a term used to refer to satellite television broadcasts intended for home reception, also referred to more broadly as Direct broadcast satellite (DBS) signals. The expression direct-to-home or DTH was, initially, meant to distinguish the transmissions directly intended for home viewers from cable television distribution services that sometimes carried on the same satellite. The term predates DBS satellites and is often used in reference to services carried by lower power satellites which required larger dishes (1.7m diameter or greater) for reception.
