Post has been resolved! Thanks

Working! Thanks for everyone's advice. Here's what I did to fix. Went to dishpointer.com and found the information for my location on 119°. Put everything at proper settings, nothing no signal what so ever. So being frustrated and tired of this Texas heat and humidity decided I would wait...

Bought the lnb off ebay, just bought what I thought I needed. So what Lnb do I need?

Trial and errors continue. Tried all of the above to no avail. Still looking. Thanks for the input! Could a cable connector be the issue? I have about 50' of cable ran then connected anther 25' with a double female. Could this be a problem? Did not affect my previous receive though.

DVRexpander - Yes the mast is at 90°, learned my lesson on that years ago on my first install. Everything is tight with the exception of where the pole mounts to the mast. It is snug, not tight. Nothing really rocks when I move it. There is a little play but when I stop moving it it goes...

The plastic LNB brace is in the holes on the arm. Here's a couple of pictures.

Should I go by the coordinates the dish manual gives or the coordinates on the point dish screen? Manual says 215, 45, 124, dish point screen says 208, 48, 119. Also, move to the left not right? Aren't the satellites from west to east 110, 119, 129, at least that's what I found on a search.

Hudgreen, The test switch page indicates the following: 129° OK (1K.2) 119° OK (1K.2) and Conn X (1K.2) . Yes I am using the point screen to fine tune the signal. I'm located north of the Houston Texas area 77336. How do you switch off a sat? Thanks for the help!

Thanks for the reply, I've tried covering both outsides and cannot get a signal. This was making very small moves and then slight elevation moves as well.

I just upgraded to a VIP 722K receiver and a 1000.2 WA dish. Dish came with a dual LNB so I purchased a new triple LNB 1000.2WA so I could get 110, 119 and 129. Here's my problem/question. I can get 119 and 129 but no 110. Looking from the back of the dish, I cover the right side LNB and I...
