The 22,236 mile figure comes from the desire for a geosynchronous orbit. Not a desire for increased coverage. Many satellites at that altitude use specialized antennas to limit their coverage to specific areas of the earth. There is no sense in wasting the little available energy on a satellite in sending RF to places where you don't intend to provide coverage. |
