The "Sword of Damocles" hanging over the city
Satellite TV receivers are commonly known as "satellite pans."
The compliant live satellite TV service solves the problem that the masses in rural areas cannot listen to radio and TV for a long time.
Nowadays, "satellite pots" also appear in large numbers on the facades of buildings in the core areas of cities with high population density.
"According to our visit and research, there are about 4000'satellite pots' on the facades of high-rise buildings in Huangpu District, Shanghai alone." Shao Yi, prosecutor of the People's Procuratorate of Huangpu District, told reporters.

Among them, there are 73 hidden dangers of “satellite antennas” falling from height, accounting for 12.58% of the hidden dangers of external wall attachments, and accounting for 7.2% of all types of hidden dangers of falling objects from height.

Illegal trafficking in "satellite pot" phenomenon is still common
After the reporter searched for keywords such as "TV radar" and "TV antenna" on Taobao, Xianyu and other e-commerce platforms, a large number of illegal sales of "satellite pot" products appeared, with prices ranging from 100 yuan to 300 yuan.
The merchant named "Genuine Wholesale Mall" told reporters that the "satellite pot" must be placed outdoors, "it can also be fixed on the outside of the air conditioner. If possible, you can use a hammer drill and screws to fix the'satellite pot" on the outer wall. ."

The department stated that there are many departments that need to cooperate with the demolition of illegal satellite pots, involving thousands of specific demolition points, and the cooperation of the street is required. There are only cultural law enforcement officers in the district. Counting people, it's difficult to do it alone."

If thousands of "satellite pots" are dismantled, the service cost is huge.
