Satking Orbit V3 Automatic Satellite TV Dish Kit Vast Foxtel Compatible

SatKing Orbit budget Fully Automatic Motorised Satellite Dish package

The SatKing Orbit is the latest fully automatic Satellite TV dish to hit the Australian market. No need to manually do dishes on the ground to watch TV anymore. The SatKing Orbit has an 85 cm high-gain dish to provide coverage for VAST & Foxtel Australia-wide. Just press OK, simple. Combine this system with a VAST or Foxtel Satellite receiver, and you will be watching TV anywhere in Australia within 80 seconds. The Orbit Automatic Satellite Dish uses GPS, so the unit already knows the current location for setting elevation and skew, making alignment very fast. Just simply power on the unit and press OK, and the dish will be locked in under 80 seconds.

The Orbit has a dual-output LNB as standard and is suitable for VAST, Foxtel and Foxtel IQ. The unit is already high definition MPEG4, so as TV networks change to MPEG4 HD, the Orbit will be unaffected. Many automatic dishes currently on the Australian market are MPEG2, and in the future, these units will stop working.

The control box for Orbit is a basic controller with coloured LED lights to indicate when searching and when locked. The main board for the Orbit is also built in the control box, compared to the ProMax, which has the main board in the antenna. The control cable for the Orbit is a multi-core cable similar to other round auto dishes.

Even with the low cost, the unit is still made for harsh Australian conditions and the unit is fully backed by a 2-year Australian warranty. Technical assistance is provided via a 1300 helpline.

Satking Orbit Australian Coverage Map

The SatKing Orbit provides Australia-wide coverage of VAST and Foxtel Satellite TV. SatKing has provided a map to show the coverage area.

How does satellite TV work?

Satellite TV comes from satellites that are in a geostationary orbit (they don't move and are locked to the Earth's gravity), so they are always in the same position. Satellite TV providers specially design the beam of the satellite to cover where the population lives or travels. Satellite TV signal is not affected by hills/terrain or distance from terrestrial transmitters like normal terrestrial TV (digital TV), as the signal comes from a satellite in the sky.

Satking PromSatellite signals can be affected by rain, heavy cloud, overhanging trees or by a building blocking the northern sky (the building would need to be very close to the system to block the signal). When a satellite signal drops out or can’t be received during a storm or heavy cloud normally you just need to wait until this weather event passes and then normal service should resume. If you are in a lower signal area a lesser rain or cloud event could block the signal, again just wait for the weather to improve for normal service to resume.

Review sent to us 17/4/2017- 'Afternoon....Gordon Collett here, as I said, I would let you know how the Satking Pro went travelling from WA to Adelaide, now in Moe VIC. The unit was flawless ,worked very well on Vast and Foxtel. We travelled about 250kms and set up in each location, it was great! Thank you for your help and service during the purchase. Kind Regards Gordon Collett'
