Any KVH A9 in motion dish experience?

As a follow-up to the Winegard T4 in motion dome question below, does anyone have any experience with the flat KVH A9 in motion dish? Is this thing reliable. I have read about some issues with condensation causing reception problems but there isn't much other info on the internet. Thanks
  • You are aware that antenna is priced at $ 5000. That is 3 times what any other dome antenna is priced. Also KVH is notorious for poor customer service after the product is out of warranty, to the point of refusing to answer simple questions unless being paid for the answers. In no way would I buy any KVH product.
  • ALL dome antennas suffer moisture but condensation would indicate moisture on the inside and I have not heard of that kind of an issue. Dew, rain and thick clouds are the enemy of all domes.
  • I had a KVH dish on our previous MH. Their customer service wasn't lousy. It was non-existent.
