WILSON, Circuit Judge:
The issue before us is whether the nationwide, permanent injunction mandated by the Satellite Home Viewer Act of 1988, Pub.L. No. 100-667, tit. II, 102 Stat. 3949 (“SHVA”), prohibits Appellee EchoStar Communications Corporation (“EchoStar”) from leasing its transponder to National Programming Service, LLC (“NPS”), thereby allowing NPS to retransmit distant network programming to eligible subscribers. See 17 U.S.C. § 119(a)(7)(B)©. We agree with the district court that Ech-oStar is not in violation of § 119(a)(7)(B)®. We affirm.
