Do U even have a dish?...
does it have LNB's...
are they aligned correctly at whatever satellites U want....
are cables and connections rechecked
have U rechecked your switch..
did U input the latest bin
is autoroll turned ON...
did U set default key first
did U wait patiently for keys to autoroll
did U reboot....
is receiver antenna settings configured the same as your cables and switch ports and type...
have U read at least 10 hours before attempting this hobby...
do U have a manual for your receiver...
have U read it lately...

It is DTV International Dish Antenna sized 36" x 24". Do I look for 95W and 101W satellites in Antenna Setup ?

LK only understands Braille these days.
You could have asked in plain normal easy to understand (even by LK) English that "What LNBs should I buy to use with this huge Dish I have?" and she would have said "You can install 4 cheap LNBs on an arm and get all the different channels."
Mind you I am not LK I am that dumb guy who does not know a thing.

Dude
LK is right the dish is for Dishnet
The Middle LNB is for the FSS 118.75
The 2 side LNBs CAN get 91 or 82
With careful installation can get both

Not easy but possible
I would cover middle LNB with a paper cup or tape
If possible not even plug the coax in

I always thought Middle LNB has to be the FSS I never seen one but even if it is the side LNB can still get both birds. In that case yo don't need to cover LNB

Not for a noobie to test but what the heck give it a shot.
I'm here if yo got questions

Ooops I only saw first post

If your dish is a DTV
Yes yo can only get either 91 or 82 with the LNB that gets 101
They won't be blockage on that LNB

Yo'll need to repoint dish turn dish slightly counter clockwise and elevation also slightly up or down based on your location 101 to 92 (East cost yo move up, west yo move down)

I wouldn't worry about calculation

Draw a marker line as a reference on both Elevation and Azmith Angle.
If yo make a mistake start all over from reference line

Since yo are there at 101
Yo'll need to repoint dish turn dish slightly counter clockwise and elevation also slightly up or down based on your location 101 to 92 (East cost yo move up, west yo move down)

Very small tweeks
Turn on Beep option if yo got one on your receiver
