RE: Loss of SATCOM. Question to our comm specialists: Does this mean that for loss of signal the airplane must be banked 67 degrees away from the satellite (assuming satellite position was 28 deg from vertical for the AC position)?

CMA-2102 Data Sheet

Jane's Avionics
Since the CMA-2102 is mounted on the top of the aircraft, its coverage pattern does not suffer from keyholes/blindspots, and installation is greatly simplified. The system conforms to ARINC Characteristic 741 and Inmarsat SDM.The CMA-2102 covers 360° in azimuth and -5 to +90° in elevation and operates over the frequency range 1,525 to 1,660.5 MHz.
