Winegard selling satellite TV antennas at TA locations

Winegard, a provider of antenna design, development, and manufacturing, has moved into the truck market by partnering with DAS Distributing, Inc. to offer its line of antennas directed at professional truck drivers at Travel Centers of America locations and independent stores.

The Pathway X1, Carryout G2, Rayzar Amplified, and Rayzar Mini are available at select truck stops across the country with plans to expand to additional stores.

“Winegard’s commitment to quality and ease-of-use is reflected in all of our trucking products, and we’re thrilled to bring our collection to a top travel plaza network,” says Erik Guldager, truck market sales manager for Winegard.  “Our antennas can make life on the road enjoyable by offering more entertainment options with satellite or over-the-air TV on-the-go.”

The antenna is easy-to-install on the inside of a truck window with quick release suction cup clips. The Rayzar Amplified has a low noise amplifier for up to twice the range with only a 1db noise figure which minimizes pixilation or dropouts from passing trucks, the company says.

Rayzar Mini Digital Broadcast HD TV Antenna ($39.99):  The Rayzar Mini has all of the great features of the Rayzar Amplified, but on a much smaller scale.  It weighs 5.44 ounces, and has a small footprint of 7.25X9.25 inches.
