Can't pick up Eco 7(119W)

I recently moved about 2 miles to a new address, I installed my dish and now I am not able to pick up 119 as I did before I moved. I have a dish pro 500 dish with the two LNB(110 & 119). I am receiving 100% signal from the 110 sat but nothing from the 119, and regardless of how much I mess with the dish moving it very little in any direction I am just not getting anything for 119.
I have a VS-Ultra2000 and I'm using a 4x1 DiSQUE switch.
Settings:
port 1: 119 / LNB=11250 / TP=12239 / LNB type=DSC-DP
port 2: 110 / LNB=11250 / TP=12224 / LNB type=DSC-DP

I changed and switched cables, and ports settings, and switches, and LNBs, but nothing seems to be able to pick up 119.
The closest thing I can get to any type of signal is a flashing signal strength which alternates between 0 and 68.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

you are probably hitting the 110 on the wrong lbn (119) hook up your cable to the 110 lnb only and turn you dish back to the right as you are facing from the front, lnb side, find the 110 again hopefully with the right lnb and you should also have the 119 sat.

Thanks eloans1, but I tried that also and still no luck...I think it may have something to do with all the power lines in front of the dish...I will try to relocate the dish. Thanks again.

how close

how close are the powerlines? Most obstructions will only effect your signal if the lnbs are blocked or your dish is say directly behind a tree... when the signal is picked up by the dish is is coming down at a 45 degree angle, is is why when you live farther north you need to lower your elevation, and farther south you need angle the dish more. The best ex. i can give of this is at my house we have 3 large palm trees located about 40 feet from my dish location, I to thought these were blocking my signal but after doing the math ( which was a horrible flash back to high school) I found that the trees were not the issue, for there location to the dish, according to dishpointer.com, those trees would have to be almost 100 feet tall to give me an issue. I would think that the issue you are having is something such as your skew and stuff is off a bit, which could be from a number of things including your mount bracket and mast are not level. which would mean that you would have to tweak the skew, and elevation settings, i would check to make your your mounts are level first. I had the same issue when i first installed my dish my mast was about a half bubble off level and i was only getting 119, not 110, once i remounted, and had it level got both birds with the settings from dishpointer. may not be the issue but worth a try.

if they are internationals, yes all internationals are n3 now, the only way to get them, is 1 buy an nfusion or neosat, these receivers are iks and will have the internationals working. Neosat ipro2000 is not dn iks ready yet, should be released soon. please start a new posrt or ready as i see this question alot lately, and you don't end up hijacking someones thread, as they most likely need help with a different issue.
