It's amazing how many ways people spell the word satellite -- satellitte, satelite, satelitte...

Common Mis-Spellings

I am not sure if it's a slip on the keyboard or that some people are a little confused at the spelling of a few common words relating to the satellite tv industry.

On the Internet, some words are just plain hard to spell and "satellite" is one of them.

Whichever way you spell the word, it is nice to know that most search engines offer you the correct spelling when you do your search.

These are the common spelling errors with the correct spelling:

  • Dish Network; not dishnetwork or dish nettwork
  • DIRECTV; not directtv or direct tv
  • Satellite; not satellitte, satelite or satelitte
