Since you are at 82-12, either Nimiq2 at 82 or AMC9 at 83 would work fine, assuming that you have a linear LNBF. You can use either the HughesNet transponders on AMC9, or the 12224 transponder on Nimiq for alignment, even though the Nimiq sat is circular. Ie your south sat is the one closest to your longitude.
