I have both T & VOD on the Buy list. Probably will add a bit more VOD as I need to build up that holding. My T holdings is almost 3x that of VOD. VOD yields just over 7% and only pays twice a year (next xdiv 11/22 for $0.55/share). They also pay in June too, a larger amount.

For me, the key is to build the telcom basket which now includes; T, VOD VZ, CTL, CMCSA (shown in rank size). The basket represent about 7.5% of the taxable portfolio. Would like to get this up to 10% as long as sector is depressed.

The telcom basket also has a nice blendid div yield.
