    You have the DTH connection at your home for the television. You are confused that it can be connected to your desktop or not. Here i am clearing all your doubts , You can connect the DTH to your desktop to watch television. But it cannot be connected to your desktop directly. To connect your DTH to the desktop some other hardware is required. After installing that hardware you can directly connect the DTH to you desktop.

    You'd need to get a special hardware card with a TV tuner. I recommend using Leadtek WinFast cards. Google them to find where to buy...
