I purchased a King 4800 satellite dish for directv. I tried plugging it into the coax port on the outside (shore side) of my new RV. The power inserter on the inside does not send power to the antenna...
I am not familar with that model but domes are not compatible with the Genie receivers as the Genie requires SWM. However, other domes CAN have the SWM8 kit with PI29 (29V power inserter) added between the dome and the receiver and the Genie works just fine. With the upcoming changes to DirecTV, which is going to have a dramatic change to what programming can and cannot be received, I would not spend any money on a dome at this point.
