  @therealjugni @TELUS I can tell you that I was able to fix the issue but no resolve with the original person. It's very sad but we are looking at other options now. We have been a telus customer for over 20 years #shameonyoutelus

  @Shawhelp @ShawInfo I just waited an hour and forty five minutes on hold after being told at the beginning that the wait time was between 35 and 45 minutes. This is the third time I’ve called in the last three days with extended wait time and shitty service. Can’t wait for @TELUS

  How is it the Province's fault that a million people couldn't follow simple instructions and wait to call for a vaccination until it was their turn? Not having a callback queue was definitely a big mistake which I hope Telus will fix. #blamegame #CommonSense

  @TELUS you may want to check Twitter for comments on @koodo. Or check the @koodo community board. A lot of upset people for terrible service. One more try from me to get the money due to me and my next move is CRTC. #unbelievable corporate arrogance and inaptitude.

  @EmmaCParston @Google People complain that high quality electronic products by companies like Apple and Tesla are overpriced until they waste valuable time on the alternatives. For my part, I’m wishing I’d stayed with Fido & Shaw instead of getting duped into Telus’ marketing-first service-last model

  @MACIConventions @TELUSsupport 30+ mins. I wish. I had to hang up at 2 hours and 3 mins. No one ever answers. I sent a DM to them on Friday and it was just answered 5 mins ago with a “sorry we can’t assist you via social media but we encourage you to call Telus”. Such a freaking joke.

  I 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?

  LIke, I put forward that I’m a drunk but my brother developed a real-time alarming system with 3 other guys on the internet. Our greatest trip to Vegas when he got comped for Splunk was when Telus tried to **** on his system that they just made up when they were bored.

  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. 📡

  @TELUS so the laws changed that you can't financially penalize someone for canceling their internet and phone plans and your solution is to keep them in an endless loop of getting transfered and put on hold. Then hung up on? I got all day bud.

  ChinoAleman (@chinoalemano) reported 13 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. 📡
