hi, there are so many satellites close together its difficult to know if you are on the right one, i had terrible trouble finding the right one with one of those cheap signal meters. best thing is to keep trying, look to see if there are any other dishes around you and try to copy the direction and elevation, with slow movements you should eventually get a lock but i dont really trust those meters

good luck
