You could do a "xprop" on the xterm once you have it the way you like it, and 
later modify the panel button (or however you start the xterm) with the 
geometry argument. I believe it is something like -g a+b+cxd, where (a,b) are 
the upper right hand corner of the window and (c,d) is width and height.
