TERK Adds To Its Series Of DIRECTV-Approved Multi-Satellite Dish Antennas

New DIRECTV Satellite Dish Antenna With Third LNB Will Afford Customers The Option Of Receiving HDTV Programming

19-Nov-01

TERK Technologies, renowned for their line of highly-engineered antennas and multi-room A/V systems, announces three new DIRECTV-approved satellite products -- the TRK-S24, a DIRECTV multi-satellite dish antenna featuring a third LNB for future DIRECTVÆ programming from the 110-degree orbital location, the new Sat C Installation kit, which upgrades an existing multi-satellite dish antenna to a three-LNB dish antenna, and the TRK-S23, a remodeled upgrade to the current DIRECTV multi-satellite dish offering. The new TRK-S23 DIRECTV multi-satellite dish antenna is an upgraded version of the TRK-S22 model, which was an 18 x 24-inch DIRECTV satellite dish antenna featuring two dual LNBs and a four-output (4 x 4) multi-switch, for hookup to as many as four receivers. The TRK-S23 model is a multi-satellite dish antenna with two dual LNBs, but will now feature the following upgrades for easier installation: - Integrated (5 x 4) Multi-switch -- this new multi-switch has five inputs, plus a built in diplexer. This means that an installer already has the input for the 110-degree location built-in, and doesn't need to bother with additional cables or parts when adding a third LNB -- a clean and easy install. - Enhanced Design -- the new design is smaller in surface area and weathers better than traditional plastic dishes. The dish is also manufactured with a refined and improved mounting system, featuring two bolts on the mast pipe and three-way tilt for easier rotation and installation. The new TRK-S24 model has the same features as the new TRK-S23 model, plus the addition of a third LNB. The third LNB is required in order to receive future DIRECTV programming from the 110-degree orbital location. This triple-LNB satellite dish is approved by DIRECTV and will better position those consumers choosing to install this antenna to receive future DIRECTV programming as it becomes available. All the DIRECTV satellite dish antennas manufactured by TERK are weather-resistant and can withstand 50 to 75 mph winds to provide durability for years of service. All TERK manufactured dishes come complete with antenna, mount assembly including bracket, arm, mast and base, cables, and necessary hardware. The antennas are easy to install and adjust, and deliver sturdy support to maintain optimal positioning. TERK has also introduced a new Sat C Installation Kit (LNB-CBP). The Sat C Kit is specifically designed for those customers who currently have an 18 x 24-inch DIRECTV multi-satellite dish antenna and would like to be upgraded in order to receive future DIRECTV programming from the 110-degree orbital location. The kit contains all of the necessary pieces to easily convert an existing 18 x 24-inch DIRECTV multi-satellite dish with two LNBs to a triple-LNB dish. TERK's Sat C Kit includes a single LNB, Sat B/Sat C combiner, coaxial cable (31.5-inch and 9-inch), hardware (#8 x 1-inch screw and #8 post nut) and installation instructions. TERK's TRK-S23 model, TRK-S24 model and Sat C Installation Kit are currently shipping. For more information, visit www.terk.com.
