MIDDLETOWN, R.I., Jan. 25 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- New owners of AerBus and RexAir coaches from Rexhall Industries, Inc., can now enjoy satellite TV on their new vehicles thanks to the TracVision(R) R5 SL in-motion satellite TV system from KVH Industries . KVH announced today that Rexhall will be wiring all of its 2008 coaches for satellite TV, and will offer the 12" high TracVision R5 SL as its exclusive choice for this option.
"KVH's new TracVision SlimLine series offers tremendous advantages to us as a coach builder and to our customers. We chose the TracVision R5 SL specifically because it's an in-motion system that offers reliable performance, easy installation, and the flexibility to connect our customers to the TV they want while they're on the road," explains Bob Hughs, director of sales and marketing at Rexhall, and one of the designers of the 2008 coaches. "It's great for families with kids, sports fans, and anyone who wants a system that's easy to operate -- our customers can utilize multiple satellite TV services, and access HD programming even while they're on the road!"
Rexhall has been installing satellite TV systems from KVH on its coaches for as long as they have offered satellite TV as an option. "Our affordable, reliable, and easy-to-use TracVision SlimLine systems are the #1 choice for satellite TV among leading RV manufacturers. We are very pleased to have our 12" TracVision systems selected for Rexhall's 2008 coaches, and we look forward to continuing our long-standing relationship with this fine company," says Joe Hendershot, KVH's OEM account manager.
The TracVision R5 SL offers signal gain superior to competing antennas, ensuring crystal-clear reception even in bad weather. Plus, switching among programs on different satellites is as easy as changing the channel with the remote control. This 12" high, in-motion satellite TV antenna system is also HDTV-compatible and offers access to hundreds of channels of standard and high-definition programming whether the vehicle is parked or cruising down the highway.
