Yeah anywhere above the equator but the orbit is 265,000km long so there is a lot of room up there.

I wonder how close 2 satellites on that same orbit could be without affecting each other.

If one satellite is over a cigar store in Kampala, Uganda, for example, and another is over a barber shop on the next block, are they too close to each other?
