I get signals for 101 from 82 to 100

119: 90 - 100

110: 76-83


Is this ok......
 
The signals you get are acceptable for clear day reception, any hint of rain though, and you probably have quite a few rainfade events, the higher you get the signal levels the more margin you have for rainfade events (but no matter what, a large/dense enough storm cell will take out any D* signal no matter the initial clear-day signal levels (assuming the stock D* dishes and is dependent on your rain conditions where you live, obviously if you live in a desert with no/little rain, rainfade is not an issue often if at all)).

IMO, If rainfade is an issue with you, I think it would be worth the effort (depending on your rain fade problems (if any) and patience) to get it realigned, you should get at least low 90s before signing the post-installation agreement and letting the installer leave.

If you aren't having any problems (pixelation, drop-outs, channels missing), then it should be fine.

Here is what I get (in Floriduh):
