Just installed a new larger dish

[Rappy]

According to the signal meter, I get in the high nineties on 101 and 119 and 80 on transponder 1 on 110, but only 35 on transponder 10 and 45 on transponder 12. I insalled the dish in light rain, so the signal strength should improve on a clear day, but what gives with the two other transponders on 110? Do I need to do some more tweaking of the dish or what?

Some of the transponders are spot and not aimed at your area - depending on where you are. If you are getting >70 on most xponders, you should be fine. 12 on 101 is a dog in my area but 18 is golden (I can usually get 18 to read 100 with a triple-sat.) Not should worry. If you "bore sighted" the bird, all should be fine except when a heavy storm is between you and the sat. I never lose signal for more than about a minute and the spring storms in GA can be fierce.

110 is not a spotbeam satellite.
