See: http://www.lyngsat.com/arab3a.html
Arabsat-3 is a sat at 26E cover Europ and Middle East but is not visible in North America. Telstar5 (now IA5) is at 97W visible in NA.

If you are in North America you can see IA5. You must have another dish pointed to it or a motor. Maybe others will give you more help on these technical questions.
