Original Toronto Star caption: Telesat Canada; the company that owns the Anik satellite; which orbits in position 22;300 miles in space and in line with Calgary; set up this antenna at Exhibition Park; as part of the Electrical and Electronics Conference this week. On the telephone is Inga Snow; who put in a call to her mother in Montreal-via the space satellite 22;300 miles away. But the 44;600-mile call was a disappointment to Mrs. Snow. Her mother's line in Montreal was busy.
