Need some serious help can't get HD???

[Cyber Brat]

Ok I am trying to hook up my 6120 receiver and dish set up.

I have the dish on the roof of my garage and I am using SW21.

Anyway I aimed the Sat92 on transponder 11 like the manual said. I can get about 80% - 85%.

Then I plug in for Sat81 and I can only get like 45%(transponder 16) no matter what I do or so it seems.

But here is the catch. Some transponders on sat92 are under 50% and some on Sat81 are in the 50% - 60% range so I get some channels from both but not all.

I am using 100 feet of RG6 cable, I really have no choice to go short with trees and whatnot in my yard, is the cable too long? How can I get all my HD and SD channels?

Any sort of help is appreciated.
