Domestic channels run from satellite at 99W to 119W. DirecTV also uses 95W for specific overseas programming in Chinese, Korean, Russian, Philippines, Vietnam and other areas.
Sorry, but DirecTV is at 99,101,103 so the difference in elevation between 101 and 119/129 is substantial. Imagine the difference between satellites located on a Central TX longitude and satellites located along CA and the Pacific Ocean.

All the satellites are in orbit over the equator, and all at approximately 22,000 miles high to be able to keep a fixed sky position, so a difference of 10 degrees longitude (119 DirecTV to 129 Dish) is not going to make that much difference. When the Rockies are in the way and the antenna low tune angle can't be met due to latitude, you're still not going to get a signal. If you were talking about the Canadian Bell system with satellites at 81 and 92 degrees longitude, that would be an entirely different issue.
The OP is hoping to get Dish, not Directv so the satellites are much farther West and higher in the sky.
