I purchased a SL3PIG-P dish on eBay - it's the new one with the small LNB that picks up the 3 satillites at 101, 110 & 119 and has the multiswitch built in.

My problem is that after installed, I'm only getting a satillite hit on the 119 bird - I'm getting a 95% hit on that satellite but getting no hit at all on the other two.

I'm not able to use the standard settings because I had to install the dish arm at an angle off the side of my building, so the "bubble" wasn't available as a starting point.

I've played with it as much as possible adjusting the tilt, elevation and azimuth (sp) but I'm not getting a signal at all on 101 and 110.
Anyone know what I can do?

If that really is the model number then you will only be getting 99/101/103. It won't see 110/119.

If you are getting signals from 119 that means that your dish is way off. Pointing too low on too much westwards.

Do satellite setup again fro 3LNB otherwise the IRD might be confused with the signal and then repoint.
