"The new TracVision M5 and M7, along with the rest of the TracVision M-series of products we've introduced this year, use a groundbreaking new antenna design that extends the range of our products farther offshore than they've ever been able to go before," said Ian Palmer Ian Palmer (born 13 July 1957) is a South African golfer. Palmer was born in Uitenhage. He turned professional in 1981 and has won the 1985 PAN AM Wild Coast Sun Classic and the 1991 Nissan Challenge on the Southern Africa Tour. , KVH KVH Keith Van Horn (basketball player) KvH Katrina vanden Heuvel (editor; The Nation) executive vice president of satellite sales.

Each of the TracVision M-series products uses KVH's proprietary new RingFire technology, a remarkable breakthrough in antenna design.

"Satellite TV antennas for boats are designed to collect the faint digital signal from a satellite orbiting the earth more than 22,000 miles away," explained Robert Balog, KVH's vice president of engineering. "Their ability to deliver a good picture to your boat's TV depends on how accurately they can point at the orbiting satellite, and the efficiency of the design of the satellite antenna. Our new M-Series offers the best signal reception of any comparable products we've tested with substantially stronger signal strength than any our previous TracVision products, which were already recognized by dealers as the best in the industry. For the boat owner, this means that a KVH TracVision M-series system will deliver the satellite TV picture in situations where inferior competing products will not, such as farther offshore or in extreme weather." KVH offers a full range of TracVision antennas for virtually every vessel size and type with the industry's premier products in every antenna class ranging from 14" to 32". The size of antenna selected depends primarily on the satellite signal strength in the area where the boat is used. Since larger vessels tend to travel further offshore or in more remote areas, they tend to have larger antennas. KVH's product line starts with the 14" "at anchor anchored.

Each size product is available with HDTV. KVH also offers a full line of TracPhone satellite communications products with matching domes for the TracVision satellite TV antennas. The performance, reliability, and innovations offered by KVH's new M-Series TracVision antennas have gained fans around the world. The new TracVision M3, KVH's first product to take advantage of RingFire technology, was recognized as the best marine entertainment system in the United States United States, officially United States of America, republic (2005 est. pop. 295,734,000), 3,539,227 sq mi (9,166,598 sq km), North America.
