Nice! Looks like 7 wild feeds! Your hitting 99 like I hit the 91 bird in the mornings! You must be pulling in 10 to 15 feeds on 91
Anyone know where I can get a 110cm dish in the US??

That's the difference between a 90cm and a 1.2m. It's extremely difficult (and rare) to tune the CBS and occasional Fox feeds without it.
Well with my dished fixed now and unwarped. Lol I just pulled in 2 feeds on 99 and it is nearly 10 at night! Lol. One cbs and one service 01. Lol.
All of the feeds on 99 with a symbol rate of 4000 are CBS. "Service 01" is one of them. You may find this thread interesting: https://www.satelliteguys.us/xen/threads/ku-news-feeds.379646/
Just pulled in 4 more! One is an empty chair and one a ship of some sort. I am surprised but am getting them with a 90cm. I cant wait til in the morning I will be scanning hard in the morning with my newly corrected dish.
I stand by my 1.2m from SatelliteAV
Just don't buy the 90cm from them though...
The difference between a dish that's 90cm wide and 120cm wide is about 2.5dB. That means signals will be almost twice as strong, or alternatively you can receive a signal that's 1/2 the strength of the weakest signal you can receive with the smaller dish. It's a significant difference if you are looking for weak signals.
I'd love to find a local distributor who can sell me a 1.2m dish (or a 1.1m dish), but searching on Google for distributors only turns up the guys who want to come out to your house, put a small dish on your roof and sell you a subscription to DirectTV or some other service. In Maine it doesn't show anyone who actually sells Ku band dishes. I know DirectTV actually have a 1.2m dish (see for example DIRECTV 1.2m Satellite Dish Reflector for Alaska and Hawaii (DTVAH12DISH) from Solid Signal), but I can't even get any of the Maine installers/vendors to answer my email when I ask if they can get one.
