Satellite Signal

So you live in Montana and you live right next to the mountains (for pretend). You just love the mountains. They are the greatest in the world you think. It is like Maria in the Sound of Music. Those are your mountains. You could never get lost in those mountains.

Your favorite thing to do in those mountains is to hike. Hiking is your all time favorite activity. You even act as a tour guide and you take other people on hikes. You teach them to love it as much as you do. You teach them to love everything about it including the tough, steep climb.

One Friday afternoon you have a huge hike trip planned. There are like twenty-five people coming and you are guiding them up the hardest and steepest part of the mountain, straight to the peak. It is supposed to be a really hard climb. You hope these people are prepared for it because it is even hard for someone as experiences as you.

All the people come to your house and you all get in cars and drive to the beginning of this tough trail. No one has ever taken more than five people up this hike at a time. Twenty-five is unheard of.

You start up this trail and the beginning is just awesome. Everyone is in shape and you make incredible time up the first part. As the sun starts to drop in the sky, you climb nearer and nearer to the top of the mountain.

It gets dark eventually. The plan is to sleep at the top inside tents and then climb back down in the morning. You make it to a certain point and you know that the peak is just five minutes ahead.

You tell everyone to just follow the trail and you will go up ahead to the top and find a place to set up tents.

Eventually everyone arrives and you get them all in a group to count them. To your dismay there are only twenty-three people at the top. You tell them to set up camp and you go to look for the missing hikers.

You go to a high peak and look down the trail that you came up. In the distance and to the right of the trail you see a light blinking. It is the signal of the missing hikers. You go and find them and bring them to the top to join the rest of the group.

Believe it or not, this is like a satellite signal. Whether it is satellite radio, TV or anything else, there is a satellite signal that needs to be found.

The antenna, which is like you, the guide in this story, points itself towards the direction of the satellite and searches for a signal. The satellite is somewhere in the sky giving off a signal that your antenna will pick up.

Once the signal is found, the antenna picks it up and transmits it to your TV, radio or anything else that you use satellite for. This is like the guide who found the signal, picked it up and brought it back to the people.

Maybe this analogy does not work in everything, but it does show what a satellite signal is and how it works. It is the signal that is sent out from the satellite that an antenna reads and transmits to be used for different purposes.
