  @Ottawa_Biker @OC_Transpo Normally I don't have any issues in the tunnels until this past week and late week before. So strange. The St Laurent Mall Telus network usually picks me up no problem. Maybe I should try that one too. 🤔

  @mikesbloggity @jkenney @shandro It's their plan to privatize for $ healthcare. They only care about $ & the wealthy. They gut AB healthcare, fire 11k during a pandemic, refuse to shut down, go MIA, & will "suddenly" come up with a "private sector" (Telus health) solution... this is skulduggery they're Ghouls.

  @Mark_Goldberg @TELUS And not just normalizing for units consumed, either: also reasonable bundle allocation & a dozen other things. Dividing aggregates by aggregates is the worst approach, except all the others -- better would be to opt out of market analysis. Which apparently has perils too. #crtc

  @perreaux I ultimately quit Bell mobility and went to Telus for a variety of reasons which could be summed up as “I really didn’t feel like they gave a crap if I was a customer or not.” So far Telus feels more attentive. Kind of like the difference between Air Canada and WestJet.

  Hi @koodo! I'm wondering what I can do about consistently low cell reception at home. I get poor audio on calls, dropped calls and often calls go right to voicemail. This isn't new, it been gradually getting worse over the last couple of years. It's also affecting the Telus cells

  Hi @madebygoogle I love my Pixel 6 Pro but it's by far the phone with the worst signal strength I've had in my area. @koodo and @TELUS both have low signal normally but of the phone I've had this is the only one that has dropped calls and gone offline. I'm in the burbs.

  @JonFraserTF @TELUS First rule is never talk to customer service, ever! Call the Telus Loyalty department directly. They will help you with whatever issue you have and you will probably end up with a better plan for cheaper as a result. This is common knowledge. Spewing on X will do zero for you.

  Why do I compare $AMPG ($0.2B) to $KEEL ($3.5B), $DGXX ($0.6B) and $NBIS ($66B)? Fair question. And the answer is bigger than people think, because AMPG isn't just in the same trend as these. It's actually more diversified than any of them. Let me explain properly. Start with what they share. They're all plays on the same thing: the physical infrastructure of the AI era. Not the models, not the apps. The actual hardware and buildout AI runs on. That's the layer that quietly captures the money while everyone argues about chatbots. $NBIS, $KEEL and $DGXX are neoclouds. They sell AI compute out of data centers. You need somewhere to run all this AI, so they build and rent the GPU infrastructure. Picks and shovels for the cloud side. Here's how I think about $AMPG: same idea, but on the tower instead of the data center. That's what AI-RAN means. The cell tower stops being a dumb relay and becomes an intelligent edge node, computing AI right where the data is created, in real time, because some decisions can't wait for a round-trip to a distant data center. And the tower can't do any of it without a radio. AMPG makes the only American 64T64R Massive MIMO radio that open AI-RAN runs on. If a neocloud is the physical layer of cloud AI, AMPG is the physical layer of edge AI. Honest framing: today a neocloud sells recurring compute and AMPG sells radio hardware, so the analogy is about where this is heading, the tower as the next edge data center, not a claim it's already an identical business. Same megatrend, earlier in its arc. But here's where AMPG actually pulls ahead of a pure neocloud play. It isn't a one-trick bet. While the neoclouds live or die on a single thesis, AMPG has multiple real legs underneath it. ✅ Zero debt. ✅ $20M cash. ✅ $200M market cap. ✅ 48% gross margins. ➟ Leg 1, the revenue engine that exists right now: Telus. AMPG's radio is already deployed at a Tier-1 carrier, and on the last call the COO said they "continue to receive orders against that LOI" and projected Q2 "definitely much higher than Q1.". That's real, recurring, shipping revenue. A lot of these pure AI-infra names are still pre-revenue or burning cash. AMPG is selling product today at 48% gross margins. ➟ Leg 2, space. AMPG makes the low-noise amplifiers that are the "ears" of satellites. It shipped prototypes to a "Fortune 50 satellite systems provider" building a LEO constellation, and the only Fortune 50 doing that is Amazon with Kuiper, which then showed up on AMPG's customer wall. (Honest framing: the wall confirms Amazon as a customer, the LEO link is my deduction, not a disclosed deal.) With SpaceX now public, the whole space sector just got validated, and AMPG is the picks-and-shovels under it. ➟ Leg 3, quantum. AMPG makes the cryogenic amplifiers superconducting quantum computers need for qubit readout, with proof-of-concept units shipped to names like IBM and Google. Optionality, not revenue yet, but real and patented and American. ➟ Leg 4, defense. Lockheed, Northrop, L3Harris, Boeing, NASA on the customer wall. Relationships that take years of qualification to earn. So put it together. AMPG is in the exact same AI-infrastructure megatrend everyone loves the neoclouds for, except it also has real shipping revenue, a Tier-1 carrier ramping, space exposure, quantum optionality, and a defense business, all at a sub-$1B cap, debt-free, with 48% margins. That's the part that breaks the lazy argument. When someone says AMPG "already ran 135%" while cheering NBIS or DGXX up 160-190%, they're judging it by the chart, not the thesis. And on the thesis, AMPG isn't behind these names. It's the same trade, with more legs, earlier, and cheaper. They picked the data center. I'm adding the tower. And the tower happens to also touch space, quantum and defense. Not financial advice. I'm long $AMPG. DYOR. 📡

  ChinoAleman (@chinoalemano) reported 10 minutes ago

  This is the most important framing of $AMPG I've seen, and it's the distinction almost everyone misses. And, obviously, comes from a guy called "calm". Let me build on it, because once you see the full picture, it's hard to unsee. Everyone wants to call today a short squeeze. But the point here is sharper: a squeeze fades, a re-rating doesn't. If today was purely shorts covering, it's mechanical. They buy back, the pressure releases, and it bleeds out over the next few days. Nothing fundamental changed. But if today was the market starting to recognize the actual business, that's a completely different animal. That's a beginning, not a ******. And the reason I lean toward the second is simple: look at what the shorts are actually betting against. For months their thesis was that AMPG wouldn't execute, that revenue wouldn't show up, that it keeps drifting lower. The problem is the opposite kept happening, and the last earnings call made that impossible to ignore. Let me walk through it. Start with the core. AMPG is the only American company commercializing the 64T64R Massive MIMO AI-RAN radio, the physical layer open AI-RAN runs on. Already deployed at Telus, a Tier-1 carrier. Right beside Samsung. 2 out of 5 radios from TELUS. 48% gross margins, up from 33%. Debt-free. That alone breaks the "won't execute" thesis. Then the call got louder. COO Jorge Flores on Telus (detective): "We continue to receive orders against that LOI as well". And on the quarter: "We are projecting Q2 to be definitely much higher than Q1." Q1 was already $5.35M, up 48.6%. So the ramp the bears said wouldn't materialize is not only materializing, it's accelerating. Then CEO Fawad Maqbool dropped the part nobody's pricing. On new carriers: "We've had very productive discussions with major MNOs, and it's more likely they'll go straight to POs, no LOIs. We'll be announcing those in the next quarter or so." . Major operators, plural, potentially skipping the letter-of-intent stage and going straight to firm purchase orders. That's a stronger commitment than how Telus even started. And then he pointed abroad: "Our success being the largest O-RAN deployment in America is helping us reach further into Europe and other areas of the world.". That's not empty talk. AMPG already signed a 5-year supplier agreement with Fujitsu Spain covering Europe, Africa and the Middle East. The international runway is already open. Also, working closely with UK funded hub, being the only american one there. Now stack the optionality on top, the parts you don't even pay for at this valuation. Quantum: AMPG makes the cryogenic amplifiers that superconducting quantum computers need for qubit readout, and has shipped proof-of-concept units to names like IBM and Google. Honest framing: optionality, not revenue yet, and it serves the superconducting branch specifically. But it's real, patented, and American. Space: back in December 2024, AMPG shipped prototype amplifiers to an unnamed "Fortune 50 satellite systems provider" building a LEO constellation, tens of thousands of units expected. The only Fortune 50 building its own LEO network is Amazon, with Project Kuiper. Then Amazon showed up on AMPG's customer wall. Honest framing again: the wall confirms Amazon is a customer, not specifically that it's the LEO buyer, that link is my deduction. But the breadcrumbs stack cleanly, and with SpaceX now public, the entire space sector just got validated. So put it all together. This isn't a meme pump. It's a company that has spent months stacking catalysts: a flagship carrier deployment, accelerating revenue, expanding margins, new carriers near firm POs, a European channel opening, and free optionality in quantum and space. With customers like: 🔹 NVIDIA 🔹 Amazon 🔹 IBM 🔹 Boeing 🔹 Lockheed Martin 🔹 Northrop Grumman 🔹 L3Harris 🔹 NASA Eventually the market stops ignoring that. That's why the shorts are in real trouble. They're not fighting momentum anymore. They're short against improving fundamentals on multiple fronts at once, and time now works against them. Every quarter of execution makes their thesis weaker, not stronger. Honest caveat: a re-rating isn't guaranteed, and one green day doesn't confirm it. The CEO's PO and Europe comments are forward-looking, his words, not signed deals yet, so watch for the actual PRs. The real test is whether this holds and builds, or fades like a pure cover. But the framing is right. A squeeze is a moment. A re-rating is a trend. Shorts betting against a falling story is one trade. Shorts betting against a company that's actually getting better, across telecom, defense, space and quantum, is a completely different and far more dangerous one. I think we might be watching the second one begin. Still sub $1B. Not financial advice. I'm long $AMPG. DYOR. 📡

  @garymasonglobe Ugh... I get dumping Telus, their customer service disappeared years ago, but with all the Teslas on the roads, X, Starlink, etc, the ketamine-addled South African is tightening his grip over an unprecedented swath of the world's population, and all their data. Terrifying!

  @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.
