ChinoAleman (@chinoalemano) reported@DVLT146025 This is exactly it, and it's the most underrated skill in this whole game. A manipulated pump and a real multibagger look identical on the chart. Same vertical candles, same volume spike, same "it already ran too much" comments. The chart literally cannot tell you which one you're holding. The only thing that separates them is what's underneath. A pump has a story and nothing behind it. A multibagger has a chart that's finally catching up to a business that was already real. And that's the work most people skip. They argue about the candle instead of reading the filings. With $AMPG, the difference shows up the moment you actually dig in. 48% gross margins, up from 33%. Debt-free. Revenue growing triple digits. The only American 64T64R AI-RAN radio, deployed at Telus, a Strategic Partner in a DoD-funded hub. Defense primes and NASA as customers. A CEO guiding margins higher because the heavy investment is behind them. None of that is chart noise. That's a company. A manipulated stock can't survive due diligence. It falls apart the second you look closely. AMPG gets stronger the closer you look. That's the whole tell. The people scared off by "it already moved" never opened the hood. The ones who did know exactly which category this is. Not financial advice. I'm long $AMPG. DYOR. 📡

Ehrmantraut Capital (@EhrmantrautCap_) reportedO-RAN is the future, and AmpliTech Group $AMPG is well-positioned to become a massive winner in it. The market TAM of O-RAN was only $2.8 billion in 2024, but is expected to grow rapidly to $48 billion by 2035, implying a CAGR of almost 30% from 2024 to 2035. $AMPG's proprietary Massive MIMO 64T64R O-RAN radios and best of the industry LNAs are of importance for the O-RAN buildout. We already know from the Telus article that they will need 30,000 AmpliTech radios for their O-RAN buildout until 2029, which could generate a cumulative revenue of atleast $300 million for $AMPG until 2029 (excluding service, installation and maintenance fees that AmpliTech can charge). CEO Maqbool stated in the last earnings call that new purchase orders will be announced in the next couple of months from multiple major MNOs. Traditional RAN is fading and O-RAN is gaining momentum. $AMPG is ready for the structural change.

JABO Vancouver (@jabo_vancouver) reported@SluaghainO @TELUS I am at a BnB in Osoyoos. At home I would not have these problems.

ChinoAleman (@chinoalemano) reported@OnlyKlans1 @napoleon21st Yes, I talk about the negatives as well. But you have to keep in mind that I deliberately kept it simple and easy to understand, rather than making it long and boring. There are plenty of people who have written much longer theses. The biggest risk was that, as you'll see on Reddit and other places, AmpliTech's customer was believed to be a "declining" company linked to EchoStar. The names are hidden behind "tier 1 MNO...", but the VP of Telus named Amplitech in a random article that nobody saw. After the CSI work, we've realized it's actually Telus, which is using AmpliTech alongside Samsung and is still in the middle of its rollout. Only about 15% has been completed so far, with the remaining 85% still to go, and they intend to keep using AmpliTech going forward.

Jody Vance (@jodyvance) reported@guyfelicella @TELUS I returned from my trip to find all recordings gone and recording of usual shows just kicking back in, with no history. Then….no ability to record. Then everything unplugged for 3+ hours as my technician waited for the support staff to call him after me messaged in for help
-
Puckerglen (@puckerglen) reported@garymasonglobe @TELUS Gary.... Rogers/Shaw are even worse Their teck's find so many ways to **** their customers....and STILL get paid. Ive met a few that've told me their tricks and laugh about it. And then getting in touch with customer service...merry-go-round Its deplorable

Gary Mason 🇨🇦🇺🇦 (@garymasonglobe) reportedBeen a client of @TELUS for decades. Our home has been without internet service for six days. I thought someone was coming today to fix the problem. But I got it wrong - it's three Mondays from now, not today.
-
M.Brown (@MsMJBrown) reported@MrStache9 I had trouble with Telus. They’re all the same. The difference between Telus and Rogers is that Rogers doesn’t drop off 10 times a day. Telus was terrible as it seemed to be down more often than not.

socialistbot (@web61711) reported@jodyvance @TELUS We had similar problems and when we contacted the CRTC, suddenly, Telus was moving like lightening to fix every problem and crediting our account.

bona fide lover of ladies (@bona_of) reported@SarcasticallyAJ @TSN_Sports @PrimeVideo You need to get iptv. I’ll never go back to telus tv and adding programming packages

Michael Bentley (@MPBentley) reportedHave you ever had trouble reaching customer service at a large corporation? That was my experience earlier this week with @Telus and yes, I was frustrated. BUT then @TELUSsupport came through and looked after me 100% including pro-active follow-up. Thank you @TELUS

Temple 8 Research (@Temple_Eight) reportedI hope the $ASTS boys like dilution because you're going to need a lot of it to fund your ambitions. While ASTS has a small lead on broadband connectivity their real advantage is spectrum access via carrier exclusivity and they've locked up nearly 60 mobile network operator partners covering over 3 billion subscribers AT&T, Verizon, Vodafone, Rakuten, Telus, Bell, etc. SpaceX operates more than 9,000 satellites around 60% of everything in orbit. ASTS has roughly 9 including recent launches, and is trying to accelerate to about one launch a month to hit 2026 targets. Analysts are skeptical it can sustain this. Each BlueBird Block 2 is a 6,100 kg spacecraft, far more complex and expensive per unit than a Starlink satellite and AST can't launch anything close to the pace of Musk. SpaceX owns the rockets while ASTS has to buy rides on Falcon 9, New Glenn, etc. SpaceX's hardware iteration speed is, as one analysis put it, a real and durable advantage, and if their next gen satellites deliver on data performance, the competitive gap narrows while the constellation scale gap stays insurmountable. SpaceX already took the biggest carrier prize in the US being T-Mobile. So the carrier moat cuts both ways. SpaceX obviously has access to vast capital after IPO, with Starlink generating ~$10.4 billion of revenue in 2025. ASTS is pre-real-revenue at scale ($70.9 million in 2025) and funding itself with convertible debt and dilution. Do the bulls have an answer to this?

Salman (@salmanesmaili) reportedHey @TELUS @TELUSsupport Today I spent over 50 minutes on the phone just to add ONE channel to my TV package. It’s 2026. We have AI agents, autonomous vehicles, and instant digital banking. Yet a basic account change still requires nearly an hour with customer service. This isn’t a technology problem—it’s a customer experience problem. Do better. #TelecomMonopoly #LackOfCompetition Cc: @CRTCeng

Howard Macleod (@howard_macleod) reported@JonFraserTF @Nanceasaurus @TELUS I dumped Telus after 20 years of complete incompetence, went to Starlink and never looked back.

Baynish (@bbassit4eva) reported@JonFraserTF @TELUS I was a 30-year TELUS customer; with great service. Then I moved to an older home. TELUS said it was impossible for them to connect me to WiFi. Rogers connected me. I canceled Telus. Telus wanted $700 because I broke my contract! They finally backed off after 3 phone calls!

ColonelBlake🍁 (@colblake_yqr) reportedcanada has the worst home internet quality in probably the world. some islands in the ocean get better internet....no ****. no competition. (govt and ftc keep promising it) but it turns out to be contracted 2nd-parties off of rogers. pfft starlink....$60 for 875kb/s up???? no thanks. rogers and telus...thats it. the rest are regional and 3rd party.

steviey19 (@sck1919) reported@DanielHill71510 @TELUS How were you getting charged for 2.5 years and not notice. Lmfao. At this point you’re an idiot.

DrivingDadNuts (@DrivingDadNuts) reported@genymoneyca Interesting read. We just switched to Telus and managed to get 5 phones (whole family) for $180 all in month to month. Regular things they all offer (Canada & US stuff). They gave us 500GB shared a month which we will never get close to using.

ChinoAleman (@chinoalemano) reportedMost of this map is noise to the average investor. But one name is quietly sitting on the layer everything else depends on, and almost nobody sees it. That name is $AMPG. The one that I think will do a parabolic move like $SIVE or $AAOI. Let me tell you the whole story. Look at where it sits: Connectivity & RF. The re-shored, certified domestic alternative for 5G, SATCOM and defense. One name in its lane. Here's why that lane is the one almost nobody is pricing correctly. Look at every other layer on this list. Photonics. Compute. Physical AI. Drones. Space. Energy. Every single one of them, at some point, has to move its signal somewhere. Data has to travel. And the layer that moves it through the air is RF, the radio. It's the connective tissue under the entire map. No radio, nothing else talks to anything. Now the problem that makes this a thesis and not just a product. America does not make its own radios. The companies that build the RF backbone of modern networks are all foreign: Nokia (Finland), Ericsson (Sweden), Samsung (Korea). The Chinese ones, Huawei and ZTE, are banned outright on national-security grounds. So the most powerful country on Earth, about to wire its economy, its defense and its AI into a wireless network, depends on other countries for the physical layer it runs on. That is a strategic vulnerability. Washington knows it. That's the gap $AMPG fills. AmpliTech is the only American company that designs and commercializes a 64T64R Massive MIMO O-RAN radio. That's the highest-capacity radio configuration in the modern stack, and it's the physical hardware that open AI-RAN runs on. Not the only one on Earth, Nokia and Ericsson make them too. The only American one. In a decade defined by re-shoring critical tech, that single word, American, is the whole point. And this isn't a pitch deck. It's already real. It's deployed at Telus, a Tier-1 North American carrier, running on live Open RAN sites alongside Samsung. It's a Strategic Partner in Open6G, the wireless hub funded by the US Department of Defense and run by Northeastern, sitting in the top partner tier right next to NVIDIA, Dell and Qualcomm. Its radio was the physical unit in the world's first open-source Massive MIMO AI-RAN demo, running with NVIDIA's Aerial software. And it was the only American-designed 64T64R radio to pass multi-vendor interoperability at the O-RAN ALLIANCE Global PlugFest. Then look at who shows up on its customer wall: NVIDIA, Amazon, IBM, Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, L3Harris, NASA. You do not land defense primes by accident. Those relationships take years of qualification before you're even in the room. That's a moat you can't fake. Now the fundamentals, because a thesis needs a business under it. 48% gross margins, up from 33%. Debt-free. $50M revenue guidance for the year (and they hit their prior guide, they don't have a habit of underdelivering). And managament promised even more. Real backlog, real LOIs. This is a company that already makes money doing this, today, with the radio. And stacked on top, for free, two pieces of optionality. AI-RAN, where towers become intelligent edge nodes, the demo with NVIDIA points at exactly where this goes. And quantum, where AMPG makes the cryogenic amplifiers superconducting quantum computers need for qubit readout (it's delivered proof-of-concept units to names like IBM and Google). I'll be honest about both: optionality, not the core thesis. Cheap call options on top of a real business, not the reason to own it. Here's the honest framing that actually makes this stronger, not weaker. $AMPG is not a chokepoint nobody can replace. AI runs without it. Other radio makers exist. I won't pretend it's irreplaceable, because it isn't. What it is, is the sovereign alternative. The American option in a layer the US increasingly refuses to outsource That's a strategic preference backed by policy and funding, not a technical monopoly. And strategically favored can re-rate a sub-$1B company just as hard as technically indispensable can. And the timing isn't subtle. The US just restricted its most advanced AI models from all foreign nationals, even allies. When a country starts walling off its critical tech from its own friends, it tells you exactly how it's going to treat the physical layer its AI economy runs on. It's going to want that made at home. So in a map full of chokepoints and physical inputs, $AMPG is the layer that moves the signal, re-shored, certified, and American. The screens get the attention. The infrastructure gets the returns. Not financial advice. I'm long $AMPG. DYOR. 📡

Bob Cotter 🇨🇦 (@gibsonsgolfer) reported@jodyvance @TELUS I finally discovered that it would cost me a lot to cancel Telus with current contracts running until late 2027. I suppose I will have to wait until then.
-
R. Weyland (@WeylandR) reported@TELUS @TELUSsupport Hey Telus. You guys are now worse than an airline. Your product (internet in this case) is less reliable than checked bags and now you wait longer on hold to resolve issue. And likely an average of 4 phone calls and 2 technician visits to solve the problem.
-
Mattitude (@Mattitude80) reported@garymasonglobe @TELUS They are the worst I have come across. A few years back it took my countless hours on hold and 6 months of repeated calls to setup a new business land line. It's almost as if their staff get paid by making simple tasks as hard as possible

Temple 8 Research (@Temple_Eight) reported@ChairmansLedger Let's expand the argument then. Starting with what ASTS gets right. While ASTS has a small lead on broadband connectivity their real advantage is spectrum access via carrier exclusivity and they've locked up nearly 60 mobile network operator partners covering over 3 billion subscribers AT&T, Verizon, Vodafone, Rakuten, Telus, Bell, etc. SpaceX operates more than 9,000 satellites around 60% of everything in orbit.

SpaceX obviously has access to vast capital after IPO, with Starlink generating ~$10.4 billion of revenue in 2025. ASTS is pre-real-revenue at scale ($70.9 million in 2025) and funding itself with convertible debt and dilution. Do you really want to hold through heavy short to medium term dilution over years??
