GLOMEX satellite TV antennas

Glomex satellite TV antennas are purpose-built to withstand the harsh marine environment and deliver superior television signal reception, even in rough seas. Nautica Basile's selection includes various models with different radome sizes and dish diameters to perfectly match the space and performance requirements of any vessel. The 2 or 3-axis stabilization technology effectively compensates for boat movement, guaranteeing a stable signal and sharp, clear images.

A crucial factor in selecting the right satellite antenna is its ability to receive a signal in your intended cruising grounds. The antenna's average gain is a critical parameter: areas with weak signals require antennas with higher gain to ensure optimal reception. Before purchasing, it's always advisable to carefully review the technical specifications and satellite coverage maps to ensure compatibility with your navigation area.

The Basile Workshop's Tip

Before installing your Glomex TV antenna, it's essential to verify that there are no obstructions (such as masts, radar, or other equipment) that could interfere with the signal. Using high-quality cables and connectors is vital to minimize signal loss and ensure efficient transmission. A properly executed installation is key to maximizing antenna performance and enjoying optimal reception.

• Fast, trackable shipping throughout Italy.


• Official Glomex warranty on all products.


• Specialized pre- and post-sales technical support from Nautica Basile.

To further enhance signal quality, especially in areas with weak reception, consider adding a Glomex signal amplifier. To protect the antenna from the elements and extend its lifespan, you can purchase a Glomex protective cover.

What is the difference between a 2-axis and 3-axis satellite antenna?

3-axis antennas offer more precise and complete stabilization, compensating for boat movement on all three axes: roll, pitch, and yaw. This translates to a more stable and reliable signal reception, especially in choppy seas. 2-axis antennas, on the other hand, only compensate for roll and pitch.

How can I improve the reception of my Glomex TV antenna?

To optimize signal reception, it's crucial to ensure that the satellite antenna is installed in a location free from obstructions that could interfere with the signal. Verify that the cables and connectors are in good condition and properly connected. If the signal remains weak, consider installing a signal amplifier. Finally, check that the antenna is correctly pointed towards the desired satellite.

What products should I use to clean the radome without damaging it?

For cleaning the radome, it's advisable to use neutral detergents specifically designed for plastic or fiberglass. Absolutely avoid using abrasive products or solvents, which could irreparably damage the radome's surface. Regularly clean the radome to remove salt, dirt, and other debris, which can reduce the antenna's performance.

How do I choose the most suitable Glomex antenna for my boat?

Choosing the most suitable Glomex tv antenna depends on several factors, including the size of the boat, the navigation area, and your entertainment needs. Antennas with larger radomes generally offer better reception but also require more space. Consider the antenna's gain based on the satellite coverage of your area and choose a model with stabilization appropriate for your typical sailing conditions. Contact Nautica Basile for a personalized consultation.

Is a satellite decoder required to use a Glomex TV antenna?

Yes, to view television channels via the Glomex satellite tv antenna, a compatible satellite decoder is required. The decoder receives and decodes the signal from the antenna, transforming it into images and sounds that can be played on the television. Be sure to choose a decoder that is compatible with the transmission standards used in your geographic area.
