Tony,

I am with KING the manufacture of your dome. You will not be able to use the whole home DVR function with a domed satellite, and SWM is also not compatible with domed satellites.

Please call me at 952-345-8151 or e-mail chris.waples@kingconnect.com if you would like to discuss this further.

Thanks
