Can I use an advanced receiver in my mobile vehicle?

Yes, as long as your vehicle remains in a fixed location, like an RV park or a boat dock, you can use any DIRECTV advanced receiver — DIRECTV Plus® DVR, DIRECTV® HD or DIRECTV Plus® HD DVR.

If you want to enjoy DIRECTV in a moving vehicle, you need a special receiver — model KVH SD-HBK, SD-HBK2 or DIRECTV M10 — that is specifically designed to work with your KVH mobile TracVision dish. These receivers contain a standard DIRECTV access card and are usually installed in the trunk or under the car seat. TV monitors are not included and should be purchased separately. Please contact KVH Industries directly to obtain your equipment.
