|
| A Set-Top Box (STB) is a digital receiver that connects to a television or a computer. It receives dishtv signals from a minidish and turns the signals into content on your screen.
Every STB is uniquely numbered (a unique serial number is printed on every STB. No two boxes can have the same serial number).
Additionally, each STB comes with its own remote control, making it easy to operate. |

This number is of 11 digits followed by a hyphen and 1 digit after that. You can locate this on your VC. For Example: 01500010000-1. No 2 VC’s can have same serial number. The viewing card is pre-activated so that you can start watching the channels as soon as you get your dishtv installed. |
