DIRECTV Launches DIRECTVAUTO

[Jimbo]

For boats... That just means its built more sturdy and can withstand sea & salt & water REALLY well. Hell, I would rather have that unit.. And....

Simultaneous tracking of DIRECTV's primary Ka- and Ku-band satellites for uninterrupted reception of HD and standard-definition TV
KVH's Single-Wire Multiswitch enables installation of up to 8 HD receivers or 4 HD DVRs with a single RF cable
Rack-mountable, IP-enabled ACU with Ethernet connection, built-in WiFi interface, and USB port

Q. Do the recvrs have to be Special Recvrs or can you use your recvrs from home ?

I would like to see the version of this that does not trac while moving, possibly get the price down under $ 1000, if it came down to under 8 I would jump on it and use it for camping.

Only issue with this one is I think they said it's 39", which makes it hard to store in the Motorhome.

Here are 2 KVH Receivers for sale at Solid Signal
KVH DIRECTV HR23 19-0614 DIRECTV PLUS MPEG-4 DVR (HR23) HD DVR 19-0614 from Solid Signal
KVH DIRECTV D12 Digital Multi-Satellite Receiver (D12) 19-0503 from Solid Signal

Now, is this HR23 different than any other HR23 ?

Can I use the one from home with the dish being discussed ?

To be honest,I don't know what makes it more special than a regular HR23 or why it would cost $318.00,unless it's built to take bumps & movement better than a regular HR23. Maybe it has internal "shock absorbers?"
