Most associations have a preference, you should check with them.
I agree in that most assoications want one to work behind the dish when working SOLO, however, IMO the key phrase in the OP is this.

have to do a LL Juniors game

For the most part LL Juniors is by far the worst ball one will eno****er. It's not uncommon for the games to take "forever" and have F2's that can't catch and you end up playing dodge ball back there.

In Summary: For the most part when working SOLO go behind F2 BUT
when umpiring LL Juniors or any other type ball that is terrible, then I would go behind F1 because in the scheme of things it will not matter.
