Hey guys Im having trouble getting the HD signals from 99 c. I feel like I have pointed everything in the right direction

The mast is plumb
Using the dish pointer calculator Ive done everything accurately

for Sat 101 I get
96 96 95 38 96 96 100 95 99
95 96 95 31 97 100 95 100
95 100 95 45 97100 05 100
05 100 05 43 07 100 96 1000
96 0 95 100 96 100 95 100

for 103 ca
nanananananananana
77 78 77 77 76 77 76 74
75 73 779 72 74 71 77 74
nanananananananana

But for 99c I just get zeros

Any advice or insight? Furthermore none of the HD channels are coming in for 103??

Thanks in advance:D

If you don't have a swm setup, or if you don't have an H/HR23, do you have the bbcs installed? Your numbers on 103ca are a bit low, so your alignment is likely off a little bit. It doesn't take much. Have you tried adjusting the skew and the elevation?
 
I'm thinking alignment, time to work those fine tuning knobs. As you get the 103's into the high 80s you should fine 99, if the mast is plumb and elevation/skew is right. Your 101 numbers are good but 99/103 need much better fine tuning.

Like Chip mentioned, you need BBCs if you are not on a SWM setup. No BBC would also cause 0's on 99.
