Anyone have any tips on aligning the dish 1000.2 with the accu-trac III meter?

Will it receive readings from 110 119 and 129 from Port #1 all at the same time?
 
You should be able to get a signal reading from all 3 satellites regardless of which of the 3 ports you are connected to on a 1k2 lnb. I use a super buddy signal meter to do this on a daily basis. The lnb has a switch inside that will allow you to access any of the 3 satellites on any port. My signal meter can toggle that switch and change from one satellite to another allowing me to get signal strength by only clicking a button on the meter without having to plug into any other port.
 
Yes, it can, but it may bite you...

Yes, the Accutrac III (+) has DiSEqC, so I can manipulate the internal switch and view
all three LNBs.

I just got mine and got burned (peaked the 119 sat on the wrong horn). Took me a bit to realize what I had done.

Once you get used to it, it is a nice meter...
