BLOOMINGTON, Minn. – King Controls, a leading manufacturer of mobile satellite antenna systems for the recreational vehicle industry, announced today the new King-Dome Satellite Systems w/DVB technology (models 9704 & 9754) now have the ability to switch automatically between three DISH Network Satellites.
With this enhanced feature, DISH Network High-Definition subscribers have the ability to move between the 110 degrees, 119 degrees and 129 degrees satellites simply by changing channels with their satellite receiver remote control. This breakthrough in satellite technology allows users to see a complete programming guide and change channels just as they would in their homes, even with HDTV programming.
“Until now, RV owners with a subscription to Dish 1000 programming from Dish Network could not receive the majority of the HD channels that are offered, since most are broadcast from the 129 degrees satellite location” said Craig Bartyzal, Vice President – Sales and Marketing, King Controls. “With this advanced design for automatic satellite switching between three satellites, King-Dome customers can now enjoy up to three times more HD channels than before. We are especially pleased to have accomplished this without the need for any additional accessory components, so this will become a standard feature on these King-Dome models with no additional cost to our customers.”
