61.5West is at Longitude 61.5W - about 59.5 East of your current 121W. If your 121 Dish is also used for 110/119, you can't move it, but otherwise you will have to swing it eastwards by that amount.

However there is a better solution. You can get most of the missing 121W international channels on 118.7W (Anik 3). There are special Universal LNBs available that would scan both 118.7 and 199 on one LNB (about $20) Look at ebay for these. also read this thread.

dope Echo 1 @ 148.o*W is much closer from 121 then
Echo 3 @ 61.5 for this (French African)
Telesud 3A channel.

Echo 1 @ 148.o*W (tp 25) Freq.12574 V Ch.591

From you location if Echo 3 is better for you
then try these settings.

Echo 3 @ 61.5*W (tp12) Freq.12384 L Ch. also 591.
