According to Dishnetwork calculation:
AZ=252
EL=25
SK=129


Make sure your mast is 100% vertical. Connect only 119 lnb to the receiver (D Port) without any switches. Get the maximam signal possible on 119. Connect the other lnb's to the DPP44 and receivers. Run check switch. All other satellite should be getting signal. Go to satellite 118 and make sure you have good signal.

The 129 signal doesn't work in NY (It cuts off at about Philly) so to get the HD channels, you need a 2nd dish at 61.5 (NYC HD Locals are on 61.5)

OK so i will not install the 129 lnb instead. But is this true no matter perfect all your setting it will not get the 119 signal? Because one of my friend have the superdish 121 his having a hard time to pick up the 119 also? Could it be the Dish 1000 & super 105 also?

You are most likely moving (making adjustments) way to fast for the receiver to acknowledge before you make yet another. Need to move very slowly. Mast needs to be plumb.
