Best reception and tracking in the RV industry –
Never miss the fun
on the road!
“The bus is often better equipped for
watching games and doing my pregame homework than the nice hotels
where I stay. I’ll go down on the bus
and watch the games there where I
can choose which games to watch.
With the great HD-television quality,
TracVision is the best seat in town for
watching the game.”
Laboratory testing proves that TracVision SlimLine systems offer better reception
than even the competition’s larger 15" antennas for crystal-clear reception when
parked or on the go...and in all weather conditions!
Easy to use and works just like at home –
TracVision SlimLine’s fully automatic satellite switching allows you to watch all of
your satellite TV service’s programming, even when the channels are broadcast by
different satellites! Simply change the channel with the remote and TracVision
immediately switches to the new satellite, whether you’re driving or you just want
to change from a standard definition channel to a high-definition channel. It’s as
easy as that and available exclusively from KVH!
#1 choice in the RV industry –
Premier RV manufacturers nationwide choose the TracVision SlimLine Series because
they know they can rely on KVH for the highest-quality product on the market.
Built to last –
KVH stands behind the unmatched quality and reliability of its products. As manufacturers of military and marine products for over 20 years, KVH knows how to
build a system that you can rely on for years of enjoyment and outstanding performance. Just take a look under one of our domes and compare it to the competition
to see the difference in quality of manufacture and design. No wonder KVH is the
world’s leading manufacturer of mobile satellite TV antenna systems for RVs,
boats, and automobiles, with over 150,000 antennas fielded worldwide!

High signal strength means you can
still watch TV in bad weather
In laboratory tests, TracVision SlimLine antennas have been proven to offer better
reception than larger competing antennas because they are more powerful (higher
signal gain). Higher gain means your TracVision can receive weaker signals so you can
enjoy TV even in the rain, fog, or snow when competing antennas can’t! When lessthan-perfect weather keeps you inside, make sure you have the satellite TV system
that delivers the channels you want, not the message, “SEARCHING FOR SATELLITE”!
