I am trying to install international programming for directv. I currently have the 3-LNB, High Def dish. I purchased a 36" dish with 95W LNB and a Zinwell 6x8 multiswitch. I also just bought a birdig signal meter. I have the 3lnb dish hooked up to the multiswitch. No problems thus far. I am having trouble with the birdog however. I'm not sure which dish to look for. I am assuming it is K H Galaxy3C 95. Would someone please calrify this for me. Also, if I have a perfect signal for 101, 110, and 119, shouldn't I be able to at least detect the 95W satellite?
 
What receiver make & model?
What is your zip code?
What co-ordinates you are aiming for?

Azimuth:
Elevation:
 
Right now I have a RCA DRD-435RH

My zip code is 07860

I'm pointing the dish at 222 degrees at 37 degree elevation
 
there are 4 of the 95 satellites to download....only 2 of them work

you wanna use the

K H Galaxy3C 95 west.....

if you can program a frequency inot the birdog use this one

11780 freq
H pol
20760 symbol rate

Those are the Chinese channels and are VERY STRONG
 
Not sure if this makes much of a difference but on the birdog screen, it appears as "K H Galaxy3C 95" not "K H Galaxy3C 95W". Does this matter?

It's the K V Galaxy 95 you want to use.
 
So is it the K V Galaxy3C 95 or K H Galaxy3C 95? Also, does it matter if there is another dish in close proximity? There not in front of each other but next to each other.
