U fiirso qoraalka hoose ka dibna ka jawaab su'aasha kadib isla luqadda qoraalka:  Marinka: Ka dib markii la bilaabay Telstar iyada oo loo marayo dayax gacmeedyada Westar 1, RCA Americom (kadib GE Americom, hadda SES) ayaa bilaabay Satcom 1 sanadkii 1975. Waxay ahayd Satcom 1 oo gacan ka geysatay caawinta kanaalada hore ee TV-ga ee fiilada sida WTBS (hadda TBS), HBO, CBN (hadda Freeform) iyo The Weather Channel inay noqdaan kuwo guuleysta, maxaa yeelay kanaalladan ayaa barnaamijyadooda u qaybiyay dhammaan telefishanada fiilada ee maxalliga ah iyagoo adeegsanaya dayax-gacmeedka. Waxaa intaa dheer, waxay ahayd dayax-gacmeedkii ugu horreeyay ee ay adeegsadaan shabakadaha telefishanka ee Mareykanka, sida ABC, NBC, iyo CBS, si ay barnaamijyada ugu qaybiyaan xarumahooda maxalliga ah ee ku xiran. Satcom 1 ayaa si ballaaran loo isticmaalay sababtoo ah waxay leedahay laba jeer awoodda isgaarsiinta ee Westar 1 ee Mareykanka (24 jawaab-bixiyeyaal oo ka soo horjeeda 12 ee Westar 1), taasoo keentay kharashyada isticmaalka jawaab-bixiyaha oo hooseeya. Sanadihii dambe dayax gacmeedyadu waxay lahaayeen tiro badan oo qalab ah. Sannadkii 2000, shirkadda Hughes Space and Communications (oo hadda ah Boeing Satellite Development Center) waxay dhistay ku dhowaad 40 boqolkiiba in ka badan boqol dayax gacmeed oo dunida oo dhan ku shaqeeya. Soo saarayaasha kale ee waaweyn ee dayax gacmeedyada waxaa ka mid ah Space Systems/Loral, Orbital Sciences Corporation oo leh taxanaha Star Bus, Ururka Cilmi baarista Hawada ee Hindiya, Lockheed Martin (oo leh ganacsigii hore ee RCA Astro Electronics/GE Astro Space), Northrop Grumman, Alcatel Space, hadda Thales Alenia Space, oo leh taxanaha Spacebus, iyo Astrium.  Su'aal: Shabakadaheey isticmaaleen Satcom 1 maalmahooda hore?
