Did you try peaking the dish on 110 as opposed to 119?

Also, are you sure there are no obstructions in the line of sight since you moved the dish?

yea i peaked the 110 by moving the dish but it makes the 119 go offline as far as the field of view is better at this location

When I set my dish I used the cals from Dishpointer that combined 110 and 119 and it got it at about 97% on both dishes. This may help instead of lining one at a time.

If you were getting good quality on both sats before you moved the dish, your mounting pole might not be plumb. Make sure your bracket is not slightly tilted in one direction or the other. You also might be able to make up the difference by adjusting the dish skew if it is off a bit.
