Problems with 110

[bobthebuilder1966]

Trying to reaim a dish 500 a sub took off for tree removal and having problems getting 110 to peak. Did have to put a new pole in the old one was nowhere close to level any more, but the sub swears it didn't get hit by the tree. Anyways, now I can't get 110 to peak getting good numbers on 119, 90+, but 110 keeps going from 40 to 60 and wont peak any higher and keeps varing that much. Any sugestions would be helpful.

make sure mast is plumb, skew is right, and you have LOS for 110....
also, how did the other mast become unlevel? did it get hit? and if so, was the dish still on the pole, cause if so the reflector may be bent....

sub had removed the dish before dropping the tree, and he said the pole didn't get hit but something had to happen to it...
zip is 54480
elv 33 act 35, skew 110, azth 207
by what I can tell it should be good but need sugestions on what to try next.

you said you are getting 110 but it is weak?
are you showing that you are locked onto the 110 when you run the check switch?
if you don't know what i am talking about.... Press these buttons.... Menu, 6, 1, 1,
Then click on "check switch" and "test"... then let us know what that says....

I was having issues with it not locking the right sat it was catching 119 instead but now it is locked on the right won just extremely poor signal.
