I have been following VARL since July 1995 I originally purchased a position in late 1996. I have experienced the same psychology as you . . . I am in agreement that this stock will be much higher but the time frame involved will be much longer than you anticipate. I have followed the components industry closely for some time now and feel that VARL is the best idea going. From my research I am aware of many catalysts (some of which I have detailed in the past on this thread) that you will never hear from the company or analysts. All I can say now is that I have a gargantuan position in the stock with an average cost basis in the high $7 range. I would not risk the capital that is at stake without extreme conviction. The earnings will soon begin to sing . . . I have a short list of large contracts that VARL is likely to land (if it hasn't already) in opteoelectric, handset VCOs, commercial components, and Mil/Aero. I suspect the good news this quarter will center on progress in several areas, but especially in Mil/Aero. LMDS and opteoelectric announcements are probably a stones throw away. Take a look at my stock price justification in the past with the subscriber example I posted. Message 9339584 (my point is addressed in the lower half) And Message 9343263 (I reiterate my thoughts and correct an erroneous calculation) Also go to the following post to see why I think the base station (commercial components) could explode Message 10148684 I could babble more, but I'm sure you folks would fall asleep from the minutia. Raw earnings will drive this stock higher.
