I know Pete can work his magic and give you more info, but I can tell you where your located, your "true south" satellite is AMC3 (87W). So that's a good sign 
You need a KU band LNBF to pick up the FTA stuff
DSS LNB will only get the audio on ExpressVu 91 & Dish 119

Is there anything decent on 91? My 30" dish won't see through the trees but I have a single LNB DirecTV dish doing nothing.

What channels do you want to get?
A Dish LNB or a DirecTV LNB will only pick up Dish and DirecTV
Hope you are looking for FTA dbs? You set your motor to 52 deg. elevation, then set the dish to peak in the satellite, but there is no dbs programing on AMC-3, and I have never tried to set up a dss dish on a motor. Hope you have not spent all this time and effort just to get the very few worthwhile dss channels?????????

ExpressVu has about 60 audio channels (45 audio and about 15 radio). Here is a list. The stuff in yellow you can get with a 18" dish and LNB

on 119 there is NASA, the Muzak audio channels, and 101, and the compelling "You need a 2nd dish to view this channel"
on 110 there is the sports & PPV preview channels, the "locals are available in your area", and don't forget the ever compelling "You have a Dish 500"

The only channel that is FTA on any of those are Gol TV on 110
Everything else is scrambled
