PR Newswire (US)
Four New 12" Satellite TV Systems for RVs Offer Reception Equal to
Competing 15" Systems, plus HDTV and Superior Support for DIRECTV
MIDDLETOWN, R.I., July 19 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- KVH Industries
(NASDAQ:KVHI) unveiled a whole new line of high-performance,
low-profile mobile satellite TV systems today at The Rally in
Redmond, OR. The new TracVision(R) SlimLine series of 12" satellite
TV antennas for RVs offers RV owners unmatched benefits, including
the highest signal gain and best reception in the industry,
superior integration with DIRECTV(R) standard and high-definition
programming, and automatic satellite switching via the remote
control. These benefits are already reaching RV owners as many
premier RV manufacturers have started incorporating the TracVision
SlimLine systems into their 2008 model year vehicles. "The new
TracVision SlimLine systems are the smallest, simplest, and most
powerful satellite TV antennas ever offered to the RV industry. In
addition to outstanding in-motion tracking and HDTV-ready designs,
they offer signal gain and reception far superior to competing 12"
antennas and as good as our competitors' larger 15" antennas,"
explained Ian Palmer, KVH's executive vice president of satellite
sales. "A small antenna no longer means inferior performance or an
unacceptable compromise between design and reliability. The
TracVision SlimLine series' breakthrough, super-efficient 12"
antenna ensures that our customers enjoy crystal-clear reception
even when competing systems are left searching for the satellite
signal." The new TracVision SlimLine series includes four new 12"
high options: -- TracVision R4 SL Stationary Satellite TV System -
The affordable TracVision R4 SL is the perfect satellite TV
solution for owners of fifth-wheels and other RVs that don't
require the features of a full in-motion system. It provides full
support for standard and HD DIRECTV programming as well as easy
access to DISH Network(TM) and or ExpressVu. In addition, it offers
a unique in-motion upgrade, ensuring an easy transition to
satellite TV on the go. -- TracVision R5 SL In-motion Satellite TV
System - This is the low- profile, in-motion satellite TV choice of
leading Class A motorcoach manufacturers. It provides full support
for standard and HD DIRECTV programming as well as easy access to
DISH Network and ExpressVu. -- TracVision R6 ST In-motion Satellite
TV System with Integrated Standard DIRECTV Receiver - For RV owners
who truly call their coaches home, the TracVision R6 ST with KVH's
exclusive, integrated 12V mobile DIRECTV receiver is the simple,
reliable choice for access to hundreds of channels of DIRECTV
programming and the option of adding HDTV. Equipped with KVH's
DewShield(TM) electronic dew elimination technology (patent
pending) to maintain optimal reception in even less-than-perfect
weather and a single-cable design for fast installation, the
TracVision R6 ST takes all that DIRECTV offers on the road. --
TracVision R6 DX In-motion Satellite TV System with High-definition
DIRECTV Receiver - For the RV owner who demands the ultimate in
on-the- move entertainment, the TracVision R6 DX is the only choice
thanks to its integrated HD capabilities and free DIRECTV HD
receiver. It also includes KVH's DewShield technology, single cable
installation, and KVH's Multi-service Interface Box/Controller for
support of other DIRECTV, DISH Network, and ExpressVu receivers and
service. The TracVision R6 DX offers everything an RV owner could
ever dream of in a mobile satellite TV system. Noting the growing
demand for high-definition TV on the road, Palmer added, "We're
also thrilled to offer an exclusive new option that makes KVH's
TracVision systems the easiest to use in the industry: the KVH HDTV
Tri-Sat AutoSwitch(TM). Now RV owners and passengers will be able
to enjoy DIRECTV HD programming as well as switch between standard
and HD channels on as many as three different satellites using only
the remote control, just like they do at home. The KVH HDTV Tri-Sat
AutoSwitch is included as standard equipment with the TracVision R6
DX and will be available as an option for the R6 ST, R5 SL, and R4
SL." Visit http://www.tracvision.com/ for more information about
