Q : Can I receive RCI from my TV satellite dish?

As such, they are intended for professional downlink and rebroadcast, rather that for home reception. RCI-1 offers programming in English, RCI-2 offers programming in French, and RCI-3 offers multilingual programming.

There are no additional charges incurred by doing so, but you are limited to watching the same program on all the televisions connected in this way! The other way is to purchase a satellite dish with two receiver connections (a dual LNB system), and also purchase a second receiver and a second smart card.
