Satellite television was initially created to provide entertainment in areas not serviced by cable companies. Hundreds of channels exist, most of which offer infomercials. If you set up a satellite television station, you should provide viewers with programming they cannot get anywhere else. Getting your station established will require financial commitment. A typical studio requires cameras, lighting, audio consoles, videotape recorders, video switchers, electronic field production and post-production editing equipment and special effects. A studioless operation requires intercoms, floor monitors, electrical outlets, program and preview monitors, audio speakers, clocks and video switchers. In addition, an audio control room fitted with an audio console, cart machine, digital recording and playback technology and audio-enhancing equipment is required. Writer Bio
