the motion at about 28.7 degrees of angle range. The Earth's rotation
in those 107 seconds adds 0.45 degrees, so I'd say 29 degrees is
a reasonable figure for the largest possible angle range.

That could be increased if the antenna were being scanned as was the case for the special WUs for the s@h 24 hours of follow-up searches.

Then again, a few WUs could have bad numbers just as some have bad coordinates that have rolled past 24h...
