Far as I know the telstar station was in andiver maine. Believe my bell labs journals confirm that. Additionally those journals describe all kinds of details of the telstar program.
Being Bell Labs they included some long-term radiation tests of semiconductors on the outer shell, being monitored over the telemetry signals.
