I am a little (not too much) confused with values you are using. I usually refer to satellites according to my longitude. I am at 88.1W . Considering 6o degrees east/west, that means I could og to 28.1W to 148.1 west. This is plenty for me to pick up anything from Hispasat at 30W to G10R at 123W. It would be nice to try Telstar 12 maybe but it is too low on the horizon anyway. My sg2100 had a little stoppers on each side so you could adjust E/W limits. I took it out completely and was able to go as far east as possible using 1.2, but everything pass hispasat is too low for me to see.
