Reading the Bell labs books on the Telstar project is very nice. Nice 
fold-outs on control-panels etc.

They did spent a lot of time to engineer the whole thing. Their antenna 
setups that would track the high-dynamic movement due to the low orbit.

Amplifiers was rubin-maser cooled with liquid helium... and stuff like that.

Cheers,
