We could probably help you better with aiming your dish, if we knew where you were located.
City, state, country, zip code (?), etc.

Or, you can put in your info to any of the many aiming programs, and get the azimuth and elevation (and skew).
The GeoSat program is just one of many fine ones.
Another is built into TheList , our forum satellite list.

if its a motorized dish, you could just program a good transponder from the sats you want to find then tune to that tp watching the signal meter while you run the dish west. when the signal quality jumps and you get a lock, bump the dish east and west until you get the best signal and save the position.

Looks like you are using a c/ku feedhorn in the middle "boresight" and another servo controlled feedhorn - c band maybe? then a couple of ku lnbf's all going into the diseqc switch.
pretty cool looking contraption.
