Well, I managed to finally get it working correctly! Thanks to all those who replied to my requests for info. I finally got it so that I get good signal on all the birds I was interested in, and a few I wasn't.
That's old 1-way Direct PC dish (1 meter), with a hacked up Terk branded satellite dish mount (with the LNB arm hacksawed off) sitting upside down, as well as some mending plates being used as supports. I took most of the DPC mounting hardware off, and just piggy backed the terk dish mount on the DPC dish mount. A couple of large nuts were inserted between the top of the gray terk mount and the white DPC mount to get the elevation slope correct.
It's ugly! But it's getting the job done. Nothing feels better than getting something working with old equipment you had just sitting around gathering dust!
