If your longitude is 95, then G3R would be your south sat.
Also, you seem to have left a zero out of your LO freq, probably a typo.
Re your inclination angle (which is not really the same as elevation which is only applicable to an unmotorized az/el mount), I'm not familiar with that specific motor/mount you have, and I see that you have followed the equation on the
Sadoun web page, but I think the Sadoun calculationis very confusing, because it doesn't include any entry for your latitude, and it must.I think that you need to set two angles, ie your Latitude on the motor, and another angle on the dish to get the proper declination, but I may be wrong on that. Problem is, that there are several hardware specific angles involved here, so you are best off reading the manuals for that hardware.
Hopefully Sadoun can clarify that calculation and help you on that one, or follow the instructions in the motor manual, if they seem to match the hardware you have.
