  @JonFraserTF @TELUS Bell, Rogers, and Telus, plus their cheap alternatives, all owned by the big 3... All suck. The Canadian market has no competition. I've used every provider, and have had **** customer service at all of them.

  @JonFraserTF @TELUS Entire family switched from mainline Telus a few months ago after three strikes of brutal customer service and outright deceptive practices. Used to be the best Canadian cellco by far. Fire the C-suite and board.

  Most 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. 📡

  @JonFraserTF @TELUS Biggest regret going with them. Also Price Alarm sold to Telus and service what’s never been the same

  @JonFraserTF @TELUS Heh. Years ago I had to get the CRTC to force @TELUS to comply with their own terms of service. The amount of scripted dishonesty I experienced at multiple levels was unbelievable. No way it wasn’t corporate policy. Even their mandated apology was dishonest.

  @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.

  WHY IS TELUS SERVICE SO *** @TELUS I beg u fix it it’s taking 5 years to load

  Telus starts charging $15 for SIM cards today. CRTC bans activation fees tomorrow. They didn't remove the fee. They renamed it. A SIM is literally required to use the service. The CRTC flagged this as a potential violation. Telus did it anyway. Canadian telecom policy is basically whack a mole, except the carriers always hit back.

  @AgeNuclear @KeldonB Agreed. Telus never misses an opportunity to charge more fees, especially hidden ones.

  @JonFraserTF @TELUS Yes, you have to book an appointment to cancel. Every option imaginable to manage your account online except cancelling. I switched to Virgin, no complaints. Koodo is owned by Telus. Star Link is going to provide phone service eventually.
