Help with figuring my numbers?

Hello,

I was given a Stab motor and have a Fortec Star 786v3 receiver.
I was wondering if anyone can help me to figure out if I have my
numbers correct.

My zip is 91016. My Lat is 34N, Long is 117W (very close to 118). P is
50.4. Azimuth is 180.

Here is where I need a little help, and am therefore wondering if these
are correct:

180 - 50.4 (P) - 14 (Mag Dev) = 115.6 is approximately where I should
point the dish w/ Stab, but since there's really no usable satellite around that slot except for Anik F1 (107.3W) and G10R (123.0W), I should go with G10R as my due south satellite (Stab = 0), correct?

Thank you,
Adam
