TV-at-Sea antenna to be showcased at Dubai Boat Show

The new TV-at-Sea antenna was specifically designed for the UAE region enabling boaters to track low elevation satellites and as such can track both ArabSat and NileSat from Dubai. Like the other antennas in the Sea Tel 98 Series range, the antenna is compact and very affordable.

The antenna's classic and clean appearance enhances any boat 30 feet or larger. Its stabilisation and tracking system offers the latest generation of motion sensing, rock solid stabilisation and sophisticated DVB signal identification with fasttrack signal lock.

In addition, the 2098SEL features:
- The new 2098SEL features the new 'S' dish/feed assembly. The improved design of the 'S' dish/feed assembly has improved the potential gain and efficiency of the antenna thereby providing more satellite signal to the LNB and the satellite receiver. The results will give improved results in fringe areas and enable the user to receive TV further offshore.
- Specially designed with an extra low pointing angle to track satellites down to 7-degrees elevation.
- A small, compact and attractive all-white radome.
- High performance stabilisation and satellite tracking, even in the roughest conditions at sea.
- Sea Tel's proprietary antenna control and
fast-track signal lock software
- Ready for multiple satellite reception

Sea Tel has also added 3098SE, a 30-inch dish to their range of 98 SE Series Antennas. Designed for vessels 60 feet in length or more, this addition gives the mariner the option to select an antenna that will allow satellite TV reception further offshore as well as better coverage during inclement weather or in fringe areas.

All the 98SE series units have a new dish and feed combination. By improving the dish and feed design, the gain and efficiency are increased providing more satellite signal to the LNB and satellite receiver. The net results allow the user to travel further offshore and continue to receive signal.

The 3098SE are relatively small in size and yet high performing which translates to range capability. It takes up a moderate amount of deck space yet it receives signal from far off shore. Also, with an MSRP from $12,895.00 it is more economical for the consumer.

The dish is housed in a compact 34' all-white radome and features a high-precision reflector and elevation over azimuth 2-axis stabilization that ensures you stay locked on the satellite beam. The new LNB has an integrated radar frequency reject filter. This filter not only reduces radar interference at your satellite receiver but also helps to prevent LNB burnout which can be a common occurrence when operating in areas where large radar emitters are present.

The 2098SEL and 3098SE TV-AT-SEA antennas will be displayed at the Dubai International Boat Show 2004.
