One of the things that attracts a lot of people to Direct TV is the flexibility that it provides for its subscribers. After all, no one else has more different programming packages to choose from or a larger entry level programming package. While a lot of people know about Direct TV's ability to provide a flexible television experience, some of the more unusual ways that it provides that flexibility is less well known.
A great example of this is Direct TV's TracVision A5 service. TracVision A5 is a system that you can have installed on your vehicle that will allow passengers to watch great Direct TV programming while on the road. TracVision is basically a low profile satellite antenna that can be installed on the roof of your vehicle and will feed satellite TV signals to any in vehicle video system. The TracVision A5 makes satellite signals accessible almost anywhere you travel. While you may experience blackouts when you drive among large building or while in deep canyons or tunnels, you'll be able to get great television entertainment just about anywhere you travel. To go along with this system you can get a special programming package called Total Choice Mobile which features many of the same great channels of the normal Total Choice programming package offered by Direct TV, including The Learning Channel, Bravo, CNN, the Weather Channel, the Disney Channel, VH1 and many more. In fact Total Choice Mobile has over one hundred and fifty channels to keep your passengers occupied whether you're traveling across the country or just to soccer practice.
In addition to enjoying Direct TV programming while in the car, you can also get great television wherever you go in your camper or motor home. More and more people are choosing to take satellite television with them when they take off on vacations or even permanent RV living. In fact, it's easy to have a satellite TV system installed in your RV so that you can enjoy all of your favorite television programs no matter where you stop for the night. You just have to make setting up the Direct TV satellite dish part of your routine of settling into camp. Some of the larger motor homes even have satellite dishes similar to the TracVision A5 antenna mentioned above installed on their roofs. This will not only save you trouble when you get into camp for the night, but it may also allow your passengers to watch TV while you go down the road. While it's not recommended for the driver to watch TV while the vehicle is moving, there's absolutely no reason why she or he can't enjoy the XM satellite radio service that comes along with most of Direct TV's programming packages.
In fact, whether you're on the road or not, XM satellite radio from Direct TV is a great way to listen to all of the music and talk radio you love even if there aren't any normal radio stations that broadcast it anywhere close to where you live. This can be a realistic problem for people living in very rural areas, and XM satellite radio can take you from having access to two country music stations to having a huge selection of classical, rock, rap, Christian, and jazz to name just a few of the genres you'll be able to listen to (besides country).
Great, innovative features like the TracVision A5 are just part of the huge list of services offered by Direct TV.
