I checked, it already has over azerspace 1.
According to my somewhat rough calculations, it is moving about 0,6/0,7 degrees per day towards the west.

I'm seeing a strong marker on 11.614 , linear feed on the 2.2m at the moment, and positioned at 42° East

Thank you for this info bud. May I ask how these satellites move into their place when they are electric?

You MUST remember the tle's for satellites under active ground station control are NOT real time. They are best guess extrapolations as the tle's are only updated every few days.

So saying a satellite "is at x degrees" is not strictly accurate.
