or prior to the Closing of each of the following conditions, but

                         PROMISSORY NOTE

$500,000.00                                     February 29, 1996

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Permian Basin Title
Services, Inc., a Texas corporation ("Maker") hereby
unconditionally promises to pay to the order of SA
Telecommunications, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Payee"), at
the  offices of  Payee at 1600 Promenade Center, Suite 1510,
Richardson, Texas 75080, or such other address given to Maker by
Payee, the principal sum of FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND NO/100THS
DOLLARS ($500,000.00), in lawful money of the United States of
America, together with interest on the unpaid principal balance
from day-to-day outstanding until paid, calculated on the basis
of a 360-day year, at the rate of seven percent (7%) per annum
until paid.

     Accrued interest on the unpaid principal balance of this
Note shall be due and payable quarterly on March 31, June 30,
September 30, December 31, commencing March, 1996 as shown on the
attached amortization schedule until paid in full.  The principal
of  this Note shall be due and payable in installments as shown
on the attached amortization schedule, with the entire unpaid
principal balance and accrued but unpaid interest due on December
31, 2005.  Should the principal of, or any installment of the
principal or interest upon, this Note become due and payable on
any day other than a business day, the maturity thereof shall be
extended to the next succeeding business day and interest shall
be payable with respect to such extension.  All payments of
principal of and interest upon this Note shall be made by Maker
to Payee in federal or other immediately available funds. 
Payments made to Payee by Maker hereunder shall be applied first
to accrued interest and then to principal.

     All past due principal and, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, interest upon this Note shall bear interest at
the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum until paid.
 
     Maker and each surety, endorser, guarantor and other party
ever liable for payment of any sums of money payable on this
Note, severally waive demand for payment, presentment, protest,
notice of protest and non-payment, or other notice of default,
notice of acceleration and intention to accelerate, and agree
that their liability under this Note shall not be affected by any
renewal or extension in the time of payment hereof, or in any
indulgences, or by any release or change in any security for the
payment of this Note, and hereby consent to any and all renewals,
extensions, indulgences, releases or changes, regardless of the
number of such renewals, extensions, indulgences, releases or
changes.

     No waiver by Payee of any of its rights or remedies
hereunder or under any other document evidencing or securing this
Note or otherwise shall be considered a waiver of any other
subsequent right or remedy of Payee; no delay or omission in the
exercise or enforcement by Payee of any rights or remedies shall
ever be construed as a waiver of any right or remedy of Payee;
and no exercise or enforcement of any such rights or remedies
shall ever be held to exhaust any right or remedy of Payee.

     Maker reserves the right to prepay the outstanding principal
balance of this Note, in whole or in part at any time and from
time to time without premium or penalty.

     It is the intention of Maker and Payee to conform strictly
to applicable usury laws.  Accordingly, if the transactions
contemplated hereby would be usurious under applicable law
(including the laws of the State of Texas and the laws of the
United States of America), then, in that event, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in any agreement entered into in
connection with or as security for this Note, it is agreed as
follows: (I) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes
interest under applicable law that is taken, reserved, contracted
for, charged or received under this Note shall under no
circumstances exceed the maximum amount of nonusurious interest
allowed by applicable law, and any excess shall be credited on
the principal of this Note by the holder hereof (or, if this Note

<PAGE>

shall have been paid in full, refunded to the Maker); and (ii) in
the event that maturity of the indebtedness represented by this
Note is accelerated by reason of an election by the holder hereof
resulting from any default hereunder or otherwise, or in the
event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such
consideration that constitutes interest may never include more
than the maximum amount of nonusurious interest allowed by
applicable law, and excess interest, if any, provided for in this
Note or otherwise shall be canceled automatically as of the date
of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore prepaid,
shall be credited on the principal of this Note (or if this Note
shall have been paid in full, refunded to the Maker).

     Except to the extent that the laws of the United States may
apply to the terms hereof, the substantive laws of the State of
Texas without regard to conflicts of law principles shall govern
the validity, construction, enforcement and interpretation of
this Note.

     If this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for
collection, or if it is collected through any legal proceedings
at law or in equity or in bankruptcy, receivership or other court
proceedings, Maker promises to pay all costs and expenses of
collection including, but not limited to, court costs and the
reasonable attorneys' fees of the holder hereof.

     The Payee and any other holder of this Note is entitled to
the benefits of that certain (1) Security Agreement dated as of
the date hereof between Strategic Abstract & Title Corporation, a
Texas corporation ("SATC") and Payee, (2) Guaranty dated as of
the date hereof by SATC to Payee, and (3) Pledge Agreement
between Maker and Payee, pursuant to which SATC and Maker have
granted security interests in certain of their assets to secure
the obligation of Maker hereunder and under the Stock Purchase
Agreement dated as of February 29, 1996 by and between Maker and
Payee.

     All of the covenants, stipulations, promises and agreements
contained in this Note by or on behalf of Maker shall bind its
successors, legal representatives and assigns, whether so
expressed or not.
