Welcome to SatelliteGuys!!!
You will need to provide more info. :)
What receiver, dish&size, and LNBF set-up do you have?
Which satellite? 97W?
 
If the dish is too small you will not get all the transponders. Maybe you can get a picture of it.
Do you have the skew set on your LNBF to your location for 97W?
You can enter your physical address over at dishpointer.com, then select 97W to get the skew.
Another reason you will miss transponders is if the dish is warped.
All of the above assumes you are aimed properly.

Some of those transponders don't come up anything I just checked before I got online. There was about 221 channels on that satellite on ku side. I am for 12152 H strongest transponder on their easiest one to get.
 
Here is my problem:
for example on

12084 MHz 2200K s/s V
Signal Intensity: 98 %
Signal Quality: 98 %
and I get all channels

but on
12060 MHz 2200K s/s H
Signal Intensity: 45 %
Signal Quality: 10 %
I dont get any channels

Why cant I get this transponder? What am I doing wrong?
 
It can be several things.
  • Dish to small
  • Dish warped
  • Dish not properly aligned
  • Skew not set properly
  • Bad/Damaged coax
  • Water in Coax
  • Bad/Corroded connectors
Snap some photos. Do you have a meter, or did you take a small TV and receiver out to the dish to verify proper tuning?
