KVH's new, premier satellite TV system for recreational vehicles includes such innovations as a compact 12" high design, electronic dew elimination technology, on-screen messaging and diagnostics, and an integrated 12V receiver designed specifically for RV applications.

"The groundbreaking TracVision R6 sets a new, higher standard for premium automatic in-motion satellite TV," declared Ian Palmer, KVH's executive vice president of satellite sales.

"Drawing on feedback from consumers and dealers as well as on our experience designing and building more than 75,000 mobile satellite TV antennas, we have created an exciting product that is simple to operate, offers trouble-free performance, and provides reception unmatched by any other system. TracVision R6 makes satellite TV easy, fun, and reliable in RVs, motor coaches, trailers, and trucks traveling throughout North America."

The compact TracVision R6, which will begin shipping in early 2006, is available in two configurations - with KVH's integrated 12V receiver for DirecTV service, or with an interface box to connect the TracVision R6 to any home receiver from DirecTV, Dish Network, or ExpressVu. Additional new features in the TracVision R6 include:

In addition to the launch of the TracVision R6, KVH has fully revamped and streamlined its product line for RVs and motor coaches by phasing out its TracVision L- and S-series antennas.

In their place, KVH is now offering the new TracVision R5 and R4 systems, which are the latest evolution of the company's original TracVision technology.

With integrated DVB technology, fully automatic satellite switching, and proven performance, the in-motion TracVision R5 and stationary automatic TracVision R4 antennas offer tremendous versatility, reliability, and value along with support for services like DirecTV, Dish Network, and ExpressVu, including support for high-definition programming.

"The new TracVision R-series, led by the exciting TracVision R6, ensures that our customers have the easiest and most reliable mobile satellite TV experience possible," explained Palmer.

"For more than a decade, we have led the way in bringing live satellite TV to mobile applications on boats, RVs, and automobiles. With the introduction of the TracVision R6, together with our new maritime TracVision M3 and our TracVision A5 for cars, KVH continues to lead the industry and offer the highest quality, best performing mobile satellite technology available."
