I did not like the location of my dish so I moved it to a pole mount on the south side of my house. My zip is 46814, az222 el 44?? skew 115 these are off the top of my head. Anyway I have it all set and can get 100 to 110 signal strength on 110 and 119, but cannot find 129 at all......the house is on the north side of my dish and my lnb is slightly aiming away from the same line as my house ( side of house is probably az230?). Is my house blocking the signal of 129 or if I am getting that good of signal on the other two should I be able to get the 129?? Any help would be appreciated. My only other thought is to move the pole to rear of the house where I know the house will not be an issue. But before I do that I want to make sure that is the problem.
The newb would appreciate any help. Thanks scott

Probably is as 129 is alot lower than 119 and 110. You should also know that you just voided any warranty as that's condidered to be customer tampering. You will pay full price for the service call regardless of the fact you may pay for the Dish Home Protection Plan. Next time walk it off with the installer and negotiate the location of the dish placement as to where it should be and where it could be....
I know this response is way late, so let this be a heads up to all you would be fix it yourself type home owners!

It's their, Keep tring, it took me about 2-3 hours to tune mine in, what is the location of 129 on you dish. 110, 119, 129 should be in that order. I looked up a single wire to 129 and found it that way, the book says to use 119
let me know!

Are you using a dpp twin with a dp dual or are using the new DPP 100.2?
Hook a line to the 3rd port( 129) and point west.
If I remember right the skew is like 100 and ele is between 42-45.
