No, you cannot use DirecTV equipment to receive Dish Network programming or vice versa. Each system is designed to operate exclusively with proprietary satellites hovering above the Earth in geo stationary orbit. The satellites for these systems are in completely different locations, and their signals can not be decoded by competitor receiver units.

C-band and DIRECTV appeal to two very different audiences. C-band is more of a specialized product that appeals mostly to enthusiasts and video hobbyists who want unlimited access to all forms of television transmissions. In contrast, DIRECTV is designed to be a mass-market television delivery system.

Once your equipment is connected and your dish aimed, simply call DirecTV (1-800-DIRECTV) or Dish Network (800-333-3474 ). After answering a few questions, they will have your programming up and running before you hang up!

Because the dish must point to two different satellite positions, we strongly suggest that you have your DIRECTV System professionally installed. Most of the time, standard professional installation is included with your new system.

It is simple to convert to DIRECTV from another satellite service. Just order DIRECTV from DirectStarTV via this website, or call us at 1-866-701-7817. We'll send you new equipment and install it for you...free of charge (for up to 4 rooms).
