This is yet another satellite TV receiver model that has been introduced by the service provider of satellite television. This is a dual tuner receiver that will allow you to connect this device to more then one television sets. The receiver is capable of delivering HD or high definition contents. But the only downside to this receiver is that you cannot record your favorite television programs since it is not DVR enabled.

The ViP 222 dish TV High Definition receiver has two HD satellite tuners namely TV1 and TV 2. You can use the TV 1 tuner only when the standard or HDTV set is kept in a same room. While the second tuner (TV 2) needs to be used for the second television set in a different room. Modulated output feature is available to both the tuners of this receiver, which facilitates easy distribution of images in both tuners.

It has the traditional RCA port as well as HDMI port. The standard port is meant for connecting a standard definition (480p) TV set while the HDMI port is meant for connecting High Definition (1080p) TV sets. Since this satellite TV receiver has two individual satellite tuners therefore you will be getting two remote control devices. The first one is a regular remote while the other one is UHF based remote.

UHF or Ultra High Frequency is known for its sheer power. It is basically an electromagnetic wave that has a frequency spectrum between 300 megahertz (MHz) and 3 gigahertz (GHz). This electromagnetic spectrum is used mainly to transmit the television signals. Apart from this it is also used in various purposes such as mobile communication and Global Positioning. Seeing the immense popularity of this frequency spectrum, manufacturers of satellite TV receivers have decided to incorporate this technology in their products.

They have installed UHF receivers on the receivers and UHF transmitters on one of the remote control devices. The transmitter is highly effective and is capable of working from a greater distance. Even if there is an obstruction in the signal path, you can still be able to control your satellite TV receiver. This feature is normally seen on the top-of-the-line hard drive based receiver models that are capable of recording live television programs.

Apart from all the above mentioned features you will be getting plenty of additional features such as Parental locks, Digital off-air tuner, On-screen Caller ID4, widescreen Electronic Program Guide or EPG and many more. It even has three Ethernet and USB 2.0 ports at the back panel. You can even upgrade the software of your ViP 222 receiver via satellite. Today’s dish TV service providers are broadcasting their channels on MPEG 4 format. Because of this format the images feels like true to life.

The receiver has numerous features. The only downside to this receiver is that it cannot record live television programs since it is not DVR enabled. So if you are looking for a decent satellite receiver and not so interested in recording live TV programs then you can take a look at this model.
