If you have an obstructed view to the south west look for satellites that are between due south of you and towards the south east.  

Note your own longitude (approx 82 West longitude for Florida) and investigate TV programmes that are on satellites that are further east.  See https://www.lyngsat.com/

For pointing angles try this:
