Satellite Coverage Issue
Television satellites are located in fixed positions above the Earth's
equator and beam TV signals down to certain regions of the planet
(not worldwide). To receive TV signals from a satellite, you must be
located within that satellite's unique coverage area.
TIP: For your convenience, KVH provides links to several websites that offer
satellite coverage information. Simply visit our website at
footprint.

MCP Set to Manual Mode (DIRECTV HD Subscribers Only)
If your TracVision system does not automatically switch between
satellites when you change channels on the receiver's remote control,
the MCP might be set to Manual Mode. See
Switching Between Satellites (Circular Version Only)" on page 18
more information.
Loose RF Connectors
KVH recommends periodically checking the antenna unit's cable
connections. A loose RF connector can reduce signal quality or prevent
automatic satellite switching using the receiver's remote control. Refer
to the TracVision M5/M7 Installation Guide for complete system wiring
information or visit any KVH-authorized dealer or distributor for
assistance. To find a KVH-authorized dealer near you, visit
