If you are looking twards the dish and one of the LNB's sticks out to the left, you have the 121. out to the right, its 105. I always aim for 119, and the rest should line up, providing your skew and elevations are correct.

Do you have the SuperDish? If you get it new, It comes with instructions for proper installation and aiming instructions, which should be followed very closely.

kool thanks for the inof i will try it tomorrow
 
It is VERY important to make sure your mast/pole is perfectly plumb otherwise your skew and elevation numbers will not be true. This will help you out a LOT. Try aiming at 119 first connecting the 119 lnbf to port one on the side then do a check switch. After that connect 105 up to port one and fine tune your signal. Once you get the signal in on 105 do another check switch and make sure you check mark the SuperDish box. Try transponders 18 or 23 for 105 and transponders above 10 for 119.
