Not really sure but I think it enables a sort of global radar, so you can see all enemies on the radar as a red dot, similair as you would have a unit in range of those foes.

Not quite, red Spot. Enable it, then cycle through the Shift+Fkey commands. You'll eventually get to one (might be F10 or F12) that puts you in satellite view, just as though you'd stepped into a comm bunker. Don't use WASD to move it around, though, because it'll move your ship too and might put you in hot water.

In BZ1, if you did bzview, then you'd get satellite regardless of whether you have a Comm Tower or not.

I guess it's similar in BZ2.

Path view is always accessible, regardless of bzview's status. It is most definately a free satellite view.
