Hi list,
I've found these other coordinates working for me for bringing that menu 
up. To make them work, wryte the below code in your ahk script

Numpad9 & Numpad1::
CoordMode,Mouse,Relative
click 77, 179

Little suggestion:
Click the menu before arming the track for recording. Doing it after the 
arming might break things up.
This works only for track one in my reaper 4, my resolution is 1024*768.
Try it and let me know.
Hth,
Best regards,
Gianluca
