All,

 

Here’s a map of US military satellites, aka FLTSAT (I think). These are geostationary and above the equator.

A satellite in geosynchronous orbit visible from your QTH will always be at the same azimuth and elevation. Those just won’t be 180 and 90, and the satellite won’t be “directly” above you.
