This has been the case every time that I've tested it. I've been testing it next to someone with a Directv satellite and they got reception when I couldn't. I then tapped into their feed and found that my receiver was fine as I could get a picture with their feed. I am totally confused as to why I'm not getting reception on the other 22 transponders and I feel like this is why I'm not getting a picture.
I'm desperate for some good advice.
Thanks,

Just based upon which transponders you are seeing, I would guess that you are aimed at the wrong satellite. It looks to me like you have the think aimed at the 119 sat, not the 101 sat. The 119 sat only has transponders 22-32. Assuming that you're looking for the 101 sat, I'd recommend
aiming significantly more to the east. You are probably comparing the aim to that of a 3 sat dish, which seems to aim more to the west than a dish aimed just at 101.
Just my guess.
