NASHUA, N.H., Feb. 17 - Raymarine, the world leader in marine electronics, today announced that the company is launching a satellite television system for boaters that will give them access to high-quality satellite television while at sea.

Equipped with innovative technologies such as DBT (Dynamic Beam Tilting) and WRS (Wide Range Search), the System has the ability to track satellite signals and conduct instantaneous search and location of nearby satellites while in motion, ensuring that the most reliable link is maintained. In addition, the aesthetics of the System are just as appealing as its technological capabilities. Encased in an attractive, all-white dome design, the 45 STV is a perfect complement to boats of all sizes and types. The dome is now available in 45cm version, with a 60 cm product to be available by the end of 2005.
