Suggestions please!! I cannot get 123

OK, be kind! This is what is going on. I am using a 36" eliptical dish trying to get 123. I have worked on this thing for hours without much success.

I first had an G2100 motor on the setup until I tried measuring the signal strength and my meter gave me a "too much current" warning and nothing else. I disconnected the LNB and the problem remained so there appears to be something going on in the motor connection. OK, got rid of that dog and now have a direct cable going from the receiver to the LNB which is a Invacom QPH. I did get some signal strength on my meter but only about 30.

Before I forget, I am using a Coool 5000 with NO BIN , just factory.

Anyway, God shed a little light on me and I was able to get GREEN BARS. So I did an auto scan and ended up with 3 channels......... KBS World........Scrambled , WRDE... Scrambled , Retrojams......no audio.

Went back to the dish setup and no way can I get any green bars!!! For all I know, I could be on the wrog satellite.

OH, I have tried LNB settings for single and universal. The single setting will not give a frequency of 10.75, I do get 9.75/10.75 in the universal setting.

COMMENTS, SUGGESTIONS, CRITICISM, HELP..........ANYTHING PLEASE!!!
