Dish had two, yes two full page ad's in the Denver Post this weekend, one was for employment opportunities and the other was for DISH packages. Wow, they are hitting it hard, the success in June must have convinced them that it's time to go for broke and get some big numbers. I think the motivation to get big numbers at all costs is to give them bargaining power with the Sprint's and Telco's when they come calling to partner with DISH. I think we will have a $40 stock on our hands by the end of the year, and probably sooner.

By the way, check the TSATA thread on Yahoo, there is a poster "goodoleboy" or something like that who thinks that the Hughes 601 satellite is experiencing some major, design-related problems. This satellite body is what all the DirectTV sat's use, so if they have some problems it's gonna look good for DISH. Of course all the sats in the sky are liable to experience failures, and we know all about that thanks to Echostar IV. Still, we are heading into the meat of the current 11 year sunspot cycle and we could see more of the Galaxy 4 failures in the future. It was also a Hughes 601, according to the TSATA poster on Yahoo.

Hang in there DISH and bring on $40!
