Introduction to Raymarine STV33
Raymarine STV33 is a digital satellite antenna system
designed specifically for all types of vessels (Anchored
or transit) to automatically identify, track and capture
satellite signals from the Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB:
the international standard for digital TV transmissions)
compatible satellites.
Specifically, Raymarine STV33 has Wide Range Search
(WRS) algorithm, which minimizes the search time during
initialization, and Dynamic Beam Tilting (DBT) technology,
which dynamically shapes the antenna beam to utilize
stabilization. While tracking the target satellite, DBT
technology uses a high-performance, constantly adjusting
sub-reflector which allows the antenna to remain relatively
still, eliminating the constant whine of stepper motors while
staying locked onto the satellites.
For simplicity and savings, the STV33 brings you hassle-
free installation with its single cable design between the
antenna and the control unit. For flexibility, there is a second
RF connector on the antenna base. In addition, the STV33
has adopted a built-in GPS interface (NMEA 0183,) allowing
boaters to plug-in an external GPS to speed up acquisition
time.
