Well, lets start with 129. As stated the sat listed for 129 is EchoStar5. That comes up with:
LNB Type: single
LNB freq: 11250
22KHz: Off
LNB power: On
Transponder: 12224
Search option: All
Network search: On
DiSEqC: Port 3 (the lnb pointed at 129. See below confirmation)
Motor: Disable
Legacy Switch: Off

RED button: Scan Sat


With this I get some of the transponders with signal 69 Quality 49.
Anytime it checks a possible HD location, it lists "failed" and continues to scan. What I do pick up is:
12516 20000 V 5/6 VID 7714 AUD 7715 PCR 7714 and that is the channel that states: Congratulations! You are pointed at the 129 orbital location.
