VDB GT Sat 6.8 – Reception from the Arctic Circle to Morocco

Description

The GT Sat 6.8 is a fully automatic satellite system for motorhomes and camper vans. It is extremely robust, virtually fail-safe, and weighs less than 10 kg. With its 65–68 cm off-axis aluminum mirror it ensures reliable reception – even with weak satellite signals.

Thanks to low installation height of only 19.5 cm In its retracted state, it is particularly suitable for high vehicles without significantly affecting the passage height. The control unit stores up to two favorite satellites and automatically aligns the system at the push of a button.

The standard base plate is specially optimized for the Fiat Ducato panel van. However, with an optional mounting plate, the antenna can also be installed on almost any vehicle roof.
