Winegard To Form A New Mobile Internet Antennae Systems Company Winegard Company, an innovative and pioneering business with more than 50 years experience in the design, manufacture and development of antennae technology, has recently established Data Tech, LLC, a new company dedicated to mobile Internet antennae products. Headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, Data Tech will develop technologies and associated products that deliver Internet and data communications within the domestic and international mobile markets. "Just as the Internet has transformed modern day living over the last 15 years, mobility of the Internet and all of its applications will revolutionize the 21st century for business and consumer alike," states Randy Winegard, President/CEO of Winegard Company. "We are excited to be at the forefront of this market." Data Tech will launch its first product, a nomadic/mobile Internet antennae system designed for virtually any satellite send and receive platform, in the fall of 2004. This flagship product, available in a .74, .75 and 1.2 mobile antennae solution, will provide a user-friendly environment with rapid signal acquisition, and will be in full compliance with all FCC regulations for sending and transmitting in a mobile environment. "Mobile Internet technology is all about the freedom and affordability of high speed communication, anytime, anywhere," says Data Tech President Reed Brown. "People are constantly on the go and are in continual need of access to information. We will be offering these products to Winegard's recreational vehicle and automotive customers, and to newer market segments as well." "The mobile aspect of these new antennas provides unlimited opportunities such as remote news gatherings, mobile command centers, mobile medical centers, mobile broadband and video conferencing for all industries, with new applications being created every day," adds Data Tech Vice President Chuck Uhl, a veteran of the satellite for more than 30 years. While Winegard is already widely recognized as the leading producer of off air and satellite antennae systems, the formation of Data Tech will help secure its place as a worldwide mobile VSAT antennae system provider, by offering two-way, real-time IP, video, voice, audio and data communication for specialty applications.

But the dramatic image is often marred by the many odd-looking antennas poking out in all directions--upwards of 150 of them on the newest destroyers. The real problem, however, is that each antenna requires a costly support system, and the antennas can interfere with one another. So in August, the Office of Naval Research will test a concept that aims to bring down the number of antennas used for receiving and transmitting radio-frequency (RF) signals.
