Depending on the Dish500 you had and I will assume the 2 lnbf model. The 1000 model dishes have at least 3 lnbfs so the difference is because you are attempting to align the dish to receive more sats. The sats are on an arc so they are not linear. Through a combination of adjustments you should be able to adjust the dish to receive everything it was designed to receive.

I am no DN expert but as I understand it the basic setup goes by aligning to one sats first and then skewing the dish into position to catch the remaining sats. Someone who does DN should be able to be more specific.
