I don't know what happens in America, but in Australia a satelite phone 
can ring any phone; satelite, mobile or land line.
It is a very expensive option however, and we more commonly use HF radios 
(ie. Codan or Q-Mac) as these can also
contact normal phones via an interconnect and are very effective for 
medium/long distance (>5km +++) communications.

Steve--
Satellite phones have potential use except that they are expensive, and 
whoever you are trying to call must also have such a phone--not easy to 
establish
