JRH: Justin: Agreed. Much more info is needed for you to seriously consider Loral for the W&W. And I am sure the "engineer" you refer to is your friend. I ain't one, often wish I were, but just a learner in technology. Have picked up a bit along the way as ex economists sometimes do - as bad as lawyers in that perhaps. Since the posts prior to my last two were my previous two, I know that there is a way to go. Perhaps by next fall when the G* system has started operating, I might be joined in this idea. Until then, I simply wanted to remind anyone here who might has some slight interest, that a major hurdle for G* (financing) has been overcome. The launches are next. Also I probably owe a word to those who, unlike many of us who have followed Loral and G* for a couple of years or so, that there is a plethora of information on the Globalstar and Loral boards - among the most active threads over the past two or three years. Since Qualcomm ownes a piece of G, and CDMA is the "satellite" technology used for direct earth to satellite communication, the old Q hands have been following both G and Loral too in many cases. Helps in understanding why the Q is such a powerhouse. And like it or not, every Q shareholder owns some G* indirectly, so it might just be of some interest to learn about the G's potential. Suspect those of you who check in from time to time on the Q thread will learn a bit more about G and Loral from that source if you wish. Best personal regards, Cha2
