"We are honored to be recognized by the CEA and to receive their Innovations 2001 award," said Rick Carver, director of Datron's Mobile Electronics Division.

"CruiseTV STS embodies the combined efforts of the best and brightest engineers in the industry and this award is a reflection of their effort and dedication to the program. The CruiseTV STS is not only the most aesthetically pleasing satellite tracking system on the market, it is also the most technically advanced and is truly revolutionary in design.

"Transforming the product from the traditional 15-1/2 inches height to the new 9-1/2 inches high enclosure required us to call upon all of our 30-plus years of experience in the design and development of satellite tracking antenna hardware," continued Carver.

CruiseTV STS is a receiver-independent system, eliminating the need for expensive satellite receivers with a low-speed data port, and can be connected to virtually any DIRECTV(R)-configured satellite receiver with a single coaxial cable for low cost and easy installations.

Datron's patented WhisperDrive(TM) technology ensures quick and quiet antenna tracking at rates of up to 40 degrees per second, while the newly incorporated slip-ring/rotary-joint design eliminates cable wrap and allows for continuous rotation of the antenna assembly for uninterrupted viewing.

Capable of providing in excess of 200 channels of digital video and audio programming, the new CruiseTV STS is offered in two sleek, aerodynamic radome styles, designed by RKS RKS Rochester Kink Society
