Inside the base unit all the workings,  motors, gears and alike are located, protected with a one piece plastic moulding which is ideal when it comes to keeping the elements out. Even when the dish rotates the whole unit from the base up turns together.Supporting the dish from the rear is a one peace cast alloy elervating arm this connects to the gearbox and motors via two pinch bolts at the base of the arm.

The Seeker also known as the seeker wireless is fitted with a twin LNB (low noise block) as standard, this means two separate satellite receivers can be connected to the same dish but can be used independently, alternatively both feeds can be fitted to a satellite receiver with a record function where the inputs can be utilised  to watch one channel while recording another.

This easy to use system can be up and running with in moments of parking your vehicle up. A simple tap of a button to set the satellite searching and the system will do the rest.

The satellite also features an ignition collapse down facility. If the vehicle is started and the dish is still in the upright position, the dish will relocate itself in the park position.

The Maxview seeker is one of the few products with a supporting website. Once registered Maxview will keep you up to date regarding software releases. With some fairly simple instructions, software can be down loaded on to a USB pen and transferred to the satellite.
