Southern Pacific Communications ordered the construction of SPC 1, an C/Ku hybrid RCA Astro-Electronics Series 3000 satellite. Before SPC 1 was launched, SPC's satellite subsidiary was acquired by GTE Corp. and merged with GTE Satellite Corp. to form GTE Spacenet Corp. The satellite was launched as Spacenet F1 in May 1984.
In Dec 1992 Spacenet 1 was sold to China National Postal and Telecommunications Appliances Corp. (CNTPAC), and renamed Zhongxing 5 (Chinastar 5). Zhongxing 5 is operated by the China Communications Broadcasting Satellite Co.
