How close are you to calculated? And are they aligning both ends simultaneously?

Something is not right. Either someone is being anal about getting the last half dB, or they're on a sidelobe, or have the polarization wrong, or you don't have LOS.

If they are tens of dB off, probably sidelobe. Get them to sweep a wider arc, also use a voltmeter on the BNC connector rather than calling out numbers.

How long does it take three people to aim a 10 mile 11Ghz link with 3' dishes?

I don't know, it's still going on over three hours now...
