Bill-- I agree, I doubt I am getting the lower power transponders. I also think that just maybe I am getting a combination of two satellite when one thinks of how close 123 and 129 are but I really don't know. My dish is 35.5" wide and 26" tall (eliptical).

Maybe I should consider purchasing another dish. I refuse to let this thing get the best of me.

OH-- the 5000 does not seem to give one to change the transponders other than by changing the lnb frequencies and those frequencies are limited.
