== Antennas==
Its not true that you need a antenna for each over the air channel. Many systems receive several signals off the same antenna if they are from the same direction and band.

Questions

My name is Lem Gage and I represent our local telephone exchange. We are a Co-Op that provides telephone services to about 2000 subscribers. We are currently deploying DSL and myself along with other board members believe we should have video options, but the managment says that a headend would be to costly for us. I would like another opinion which is maybe not so bias. If anyone could help me please email at lem@hamiltoncom.net by 216.240.93.74

If you are going to have video you need a headend. Even if you use something like Echostars new upcomming service you will still need some type of headendSattmaster (talk)

Line amplifier

What? Does no article discuss the wideband amplfiers that distribute CATV signals? Jim.henderson (talk) 04:25, 1 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes we do need that along with line extender amps. Sattmaster (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 17:31, 25 May 2010 (UTC).[reply]

Added photos

Added my own photos and corrected error. Analog over the air TV does require equipment to receive it said all you need is an antenna with is incorrect. You also need a channel processor and modulator. Also photo of dish is from a larger system most systems have many dishes. Will try to get a photo of a standard headend.
