If I'm reading the schedule correctly here:

  http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/PS/SATS/GOES/TEN/

it looks like GOES 10 was already doing imaging over South America (the
GEOSS in the Americas program).  Changing its schedule to cover for GOES
12 probably wasn't much of a reach (compared to turning on GOES 13).
