The Sea-King Fully Stabilized Marine Satellite System includes 4 main components

(Fig. 1)

.

Dome (Antenna) Unit

Mounted on the vessel. The dish is covered by a protective
dome that keeps operational components free from the
elements.

Controller

Located in the vessel. Used to activate and monitor the
system, and access programming and diagnostic information.

Tuner

Located in the vessel. Decodes the satellite signal so the
Sea-King locks onto and tracks the correct satellite.

Power Supply

Located in the vessel. Supplies proper operating voltage to the
Sea-King.

SECTION 1

INTRODUCTION

Note: A TV, satellite receiver, and program subscription are also required for satellite TV

viewing. (Not supplied by King Controls.)
