Welcome to satfix. No need to post the same question twice.
0% quality would indicate you are not on satellite. Use dishpointer to give you some bearing as where to aim. Lnb setting should be 10750. Go straight to ln b with coax, no switches. good luck

95W is a DTV satellite, not much on it for FTA receivers. (If anything)
Are you trying for TP 12050 that has the Punch TV and MAC TV channels on it?
If so then you may need a bigger dish, say about a 39" as that transponder is a bit weak in some areas.
You don't mean 97W do you??
Thank you Both. I am trying to get a free chinese channel on 95W. I am in Toronto, Canada. If the Galaxy-3C is too weak, how about Galaxy-17 at 91W? I connect my LNBF to the receiver directly (no switch). The LNBF is linear, RF 11.7-12.2GHz, LO 10.75GHz. I get the direction angles from a Satellite calculation web site. One thing not very sure is the LNBF position on the dish. My LNBF is not at the central of the dish. Does it matter?. However, I did swing my dish. I can get 70%+ signal easy, but no quality.
When I set the LNB type = Standard, LNB freq. = 10000, TP freq. = 11811, the signal = 92% and the quality is quickly flipping between 0% and 100%. Why?
It does matter where the ln b is on the dish. Best reception would be centre. Dish should be perfectly level. To skew you turn ln b not the dish.. At the bottom of page on lyngsat there are colour codes for each tp. Pick clear tp when aligning dish.
