A:

Like all satellite TV systems, TracVision antennas require a clear view of the Southern sky to see and track the satellite. In a city, the various buildings and other structures will block the view to the satellite as you travel, resulting in intermittent or no satellite signal. Depending on your location in the continental United States, the satellite will be lower in the sky as you head further North, higher as you head South.

A:
No. All TracVision antennas can support multiple video screens and multiple receivers so each TV screen can show a different channel.
A:

No regular maintenance is required. However, a clean dome ensures the best reception.

A:

Absolutely, although storm or cloud conditions may cause temporary disruption in the satellite TV signal, reducing signal strength to both home and mobile antennas.

Exclusive Technology

  • DewShield Technology 
    DewShield, KVH’s exclusive, electronic dew elimination system, prevents moisture from collecting on the dome in less-than-perfect weather, when you need a clear picture most! Dew is prevented from forming on the surface of the antenna dome automatically by a GPS-based electronic device that synchronized to local time, turns on in the pre-dawn hours, and normalizes the temperature inside the dome by adjusting to the rising temperature of the morning air.

Testimonials

 TracVision Land Mobile Testimonials

“Obviously, the big thing that I use it for is to get ESPN, the football games, and to be able to get the Weather Channel. That to me is very important. That and to be able to sit back and put on the TracVision satellite TV and get incredible reception. I’ve had other satellite systems since 1996 when I first started the journey, but this is just one flip and within a minute I’m zeroed in.”*

- Joe Cahn
the “Commissioner of Tailgating
