Have a look at the satellite details and coverage here:
https://www.chinasatcom.com/en/News_Info.aspx?m=20110329113845577061&n=201103291...

The location of ChinaStar 1 (otherwise known as Zhongwei 1 or Chinasat 5A) is 87.5 deg east orbit position.

This page will give you the dish pointing angles:
https://www.satsig.net/maps/satellite-dish-pointing-afghanistan.htm

If your dish does not have an elevation scale find the beam offset angle fro Prodelin (GD satcom)documentation. �https://www.gdsatcom.com/vsat_assembly.php � Then set the front face of the dish vertical. �The beam elevation is then the offset angle. Then adjust exactly by the requred amount to get your wanted beam elevation.

The LNB receives 3.4-4.2 GHz, local oscillator is 5150 MHz and output is 950-1875 MHz inverted.

Contact Chinasat to find out what signal you are supposed to be receiving and then tune your receiver accordingly.
