Fig. 1 of the Breakpoint Mapper article I cited shows a region from 57,377,045 to 57,443,438 base positions that lies between the end of the heterochromatin region and pseudo-autosomal region, PAR2, at the tip of the q arm. So I guess the region you mentioned lying between 57,392,694 and 57,440,935. Fig. 1 indicates the limits are demarked by the two STSs, SY1166 and SY1273.
Note that the article can be downloaded without charge. It's short and relevant.

Dear Dick,
I am simply following the Watson/Ventor/HUGO R1b1c male SNP trail
where it is leading us. I agree that we should in general be avoiding
heterochromatin. I don't know exactly what is in the region from position
57392694 to 57440935, but Watson, Ventor, and the HUGO R1b1c male do seem to
have quite a few SNPs that they share in that region. This region doesn't
appear to be heterochromatin or it wouldn't have been sequenced for Watson,
Ventor, and the HUGO R1b1c male. Thomas Krahn's Y browser indicates that
there are some genes in this region such as "C-terminal binding protein 2
pseudogene".
Sincerely,
Tim
