10964V is not currently an active transponder on G11. I don't have the lifetime receiver I have the 786V3 but with mine after you change a transponder you have to select "save". Or if for some reason it wont let you add a transponder you can change an existing transponder. You can also try 11995 Horizontal with a symbol rate of 3979 and a FEC of 3/4. Yes adjusting the declination on the mount is of course affecting the dish elevation and you adjust the dish to get the strongest signal on the meter. If you come close to maxing the meter out then turn the gain on the meter back for a mid scale reading and try again. There are several sat's between 91W and 93W so you might not be aimed at the right satellite yet. You can move the dish to a spot where there is no sat and turn the gain up until you get a 3 or 4 reading on the meter at the dish and then move again til you get a good hit. That makes the meter more sensitive, only when peaking the dish turn the gain down a bit. Your just about there. Also don't scan FTA right now. Scan in Auto All for the maximum number channels and you can delete later.
