Raymarine has introduced the 33STV, the latest in their line of Satellite TV Antenna Systems, which features a high performance 13" satellite dish inside a compact 14" 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 Satellite TV 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.

The 33STV further expands Raymarine's full line of satellite TV antenna systems, which includes the 37STV, 45STV and 60STV models. With the addition of the new 33STV, Raymarine now offers satellite TV solutions for vessels ranging in length from sub 20 feet to well in excess of 100 feet.

Other features found in all Raymarine Satellite TV Antenna Systems include:

Conical Scanning Technology: Rotating sub reflector design that maintains optimal satellite lock while minimizing physical movement of the dish resulting in quieter operation and longer antenna life.

High Speed Antenna Drive Systems: Keeps satellites locked in during fast maneuvering or heavy seas for uninterrupted reception.

Superior Antenna Elevation Range: Maintains satellite lock farther into extreme North and South latitudes. Dual LNB Design: Connects multiple satellite receivers to antenna system to allow different programming on multiple televisions throughout the vessel.

High Definition (HD) Compatibility: Enjoy the digital brilliance of High Definition programming while underway. HD compatible models are available in all sizes.

Optional Matching "Dummy" Domes: Matching empty satellite TV domes for hiding other topside equipment, or for providing architectural balance on masts and nautical structures.
