Satellite link
PA Wellington Overseas communications will get a boost with the opening of a second Post Office antenna project at the Warkworth satellite Earth station on July 24. The $l4 million project, which will enable New Zealand to link with the latest satellites, has taken almost two years to complete. The Postmaster-General, Mr Talbot, said that many people would quickly benefit from the new antenna, which would enable extensive live coverage of the Olympic Games, to begin just five days after the opening, on July 29.
