DISH Network® is in the process of converting most of its satellite signals from QPSK modulation to a more efficient 8PSK format. This Important Dish Information upgrade will allow DISH Network to provide additional content and more high-definition programming, improving the customer experience. Unfortunately, this new format is not backwards compatible with older receiver or antenna equipment. As a result, older models of TracVision® antenna systems may need to be replaced to continue receiving the full lineup of DISH Network’s programming.
KVH’s latest generation of TracVision products (RV1 and A9) are fully compatible with 8PSK format.
To receive programming on DISH Network’s 61.5°W or 129°W satellite, customers may choose to replace their older antenna with a new model that can decode 8PSK signals. For a limited time, KVH is offering $200 cash back to existing TracVision customers who upgrade from their current A5, A7, L3, S3, R1DX, R4, R5, R4SL, R5SL, and R6DX to a new TracVision RV1 or A9 satellite TV system.
