Yes orbit has been around since the c-band glory days. I used to subscribe when it was a real paper magazine. I think its just online only now since so much of c-band is no longer analog.
Telstar 5 it used to be called, at 97degrees. Then it was called IntelSat Americas 5, IA5 when they owned it, and now I believe PanAmSat owns the slot and the sat, renamed it Galaxy 25.
