Default WS9036 90cm Ku band dish and a DMX522 Dual Linear Ku Band LNBF

Please help. I spent another three hours last night on the roof trying to get TV signals coming from Satellite Galaxy 19 Located at 97 Degrees West (my location data is shown below). I got 1 TV/1 Radio (with English audio, with TV showing color bars) after selecting Universal LNBF (LO frequency 9750/10600 MHZ) in my receiver. The signal quality was about 35% and after rotating my LNBF from 22.8 to zero, the signal quality went to 65%. The 1 TV / 1 radio are coming from 11991 MHZ, 13V vertical, Skew – not set, Symbol rate=20000.

Can you please tell me how I can get the other stations? The default Symbol rate for 11991 MHZ is 22000. I get nothing with symbol rate of 22000 and I only get the 1TV/1Radio stations with symbol rate set to 20000. What is the reasoning behind this? Is something wrong with my LNBF? Could I be getting the 11991MHZ from a different satellite?

THANKS for any help…




I am located in Springfield VA 22152 and I got the following settings for my location:

Location
Latitude: 38.7807°
Longitude: -77.2158°Dish
Elevation:40.6°
Azimuth: 209.9°
LNB skew: 22.8°

Tech support told me that my Azimuth should be ~220 (to compensate for magnetic effects).

Your LNB settings on your receiver should be 10750
