Nine times out of 10, it is not a situation that one transponder is weaker than others, but a situation that you are getting interferrence from nearby sats on that frequency. On the spectrum scan I posted yesterday of G25V Ku, 12146 is most likely actuall stronger than 11836 if anything. I'd bet that the problem is interferrence from the 12140V signal on the very strong nearby G16 sat. You are right that re-alignment might help, but it could be a situation where being off aim a bit to the east might actually help, ie further away from G16. Before realignment, a try at manually bumping the motor east migh be worth a try.
