Raymarine Ramps Up SatTV With New Maritime Antenna


Raymarine 33STV SatTV antenna system Raymarine has introduced the 33STV, the latest in their line of Satellite TV Antenna Systems, which features a high performance 13-inch satellite dish inside a compact 14-inch radome, weighing less than ten pounds, to accommodate both powerboats and sailboats under 25 feet in length. Equipped with Dynamic Beam Tilting and Wide Range Search, all of Raymarine's SatTV systems are able to track and locate satellites quickly and efficiently, even in extreme weather conditions.

Each stabilized antenna system provides automatic operation and unmatched performance and is compatible with numerous satellite providers, including DirecTV, Dish Network, Bell ExpressVU and more. The 33STV comes standard with the company's new Multi-satellite Interface Module (MIM), which conveniently switches the antenna system across three broadcast satellites automatically, providing uninterrupted channel surfing just like a home satellite TV system. In addition, this model's antenna control unit has the ability to connect with up to six of the boat's satellite receivers through USB connections. Finally, the 33STV includes a convenient NMEA0183 GPS interface that allows the system to function at higher levels of speed and performance.
