I have had this satellite for 2 years and it has worked fine until the other night when we had a wind storm. Now all of a sudden I cannot get 110 satellite, instead it is locked into satellite 129. I have the same signal strength on both of these satellites (110 and 129). What can I do to alleviate this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re-Align the Dish
I believe the most logical approach would be to ensure the dish is completely set up as it would be for a new installation. Check to ensure the mounting is plumb, ensure the az, el, & skew are correct, then check signal strength and adjust as needed. It ain't gonna do it on its own, someone will have to do it for it!

The windstorm moved your dish to the right (viewing from behind the dish) or to the west. Move the dish a little to the east and make sure the elevation didn't drop.
