KVH Industries TracVision M3 - Manual (Page 13)

• Keep the radome installed on the
antenna at all times. The radome
protects the antenna’s internal moving
parts from wind, rain, and debris.
• The receiver must be activated before it
can receive DIRECTV programming.
• The antenna tracks the DIRECTV 101W
satellite only. It cannot receive
programming from other satellite TV
service providers and it cannot receive
channels broadcast on other satellites.
• The antenna must have a clear view of
the southern sky to receive satellite TV.
Common causes of blockage include
trees, building, bridges, and equipment
on the vessel itself.
• Heavy rain may temporarily interrupt
reception.
