channel7 is on a distinguished road
USALS not taking me to the correct satellite, maybe

I am using a motor with my dish and I am having a problem when trying to view channels on two particular satellites. All the other satellites display the correct satellite name when viewing a channel on that satellite and then going to the antenna settings menu.

When I go to change the antenna settings while viewing a channel on a certain satellite the name at the top of the antenna settings menu of my receiver shows at a different satellite's name and I have to switch over to the satellite I am viewing from the list of satellites in order to change the settings.

I have tried several different settings and combinations of settings. I have scanned left and right from the default USALS position but still cannot get the signal quality to come off of zero. Signal strength ranges from 60-64.

LNB Power: ON (even tried power cycling this but it didn't help)
LNB Type: Legacy Quad LNB 1 (also tried all others including Standard)
LNB Freq: 11250
22khz: Off
TP Freq: 12224 (won't stay on 12239 but I understand there is a fix for that)
DiSEqC 1.0: Port 1 (nothing on Port 2 either)
Motor: USALS
Legacy SW: SW42 Dish1 (also tried the others plus OFF)
