Satellite list and multiple LNBs

HI everyone, I have two questions. Sorry if they are somewhat dumm - I am a beginner.
1) I just looked at the list of most popular satellites in my area at dishpointer.com and for #1 it says:
"91.0W Nimiq 1 | Galaxy 11, 17 | DirecTV 1".
Nimiq 1 and Galaxy 11 are in the satellite list on my receiver but Direct TV 1 isn't. Assuming that it is a satellite and not some kind of channel package (like BEV or ECHOSTAR I see when I press the "SAT" button) how can I make it appear on the list in "antenna setup"? Is there some kind of update for the list that I can download?
2) My 24" dish has 4 sockets for LNBs (91, 101, 110, 119) and 3 LNBs installed. I have them on 91, 110, and 119. While I do get signal from Nimiq 1 (91W) and Echostar 10 (110W), I can't get anything from Echostar 7 (119W). What should I do? Also, am I now limited to 91, 101, 110, 119 or can I still get other satellites (-91 or 119+) if I move the dish? Thanks in advance.
