Any DirecTV installers want to help me diagnose a problem?

When I moved this summer, I took my SL 5LNB SWM dish off my house to upgrade our tailgate setup. Took it out the first time and had no issue getting all satellites.
Ever since, I can not pick up the 99 satellite, no matter what I do. I have signals in the 90s on all other satellites, including 103ca and 103cb, but I am getting all 0s on 99. Once I got the 101 & 103 peaked, I have dithered to the max in both directions for elevation and azimuth but I dont even get a blip on the signal meter through the receiver.
What are the possible reasons for this? Bad LNB? Could it still be an alignment issue? Bad cabling?

This probably doesn't help, but DTV was at my house yesterday for the 2nd time in 2 months because I've been having a sporadic error 771 on several channels. Originally they replaced the LNB, but the problem persisted. Yesterday they swapped out the SWIM multiswitch which seems to have solved the problem.
