Well call me a fair weather friend, but I am in and out of DISH for a point. I am rooting for it, and I will get back in later, but it seems to me there are at least a few more things that need to happen beofre the stock really moves.. who knows.

Still love my dish.

John,

Do you mean your post at -

Message 3422297 ?

FYI - I've been a long term watcher of DISH, and am a sat enthusiast
(I have a multi-sat set-up in the UK which can track about 20
European satellites - I haven't yet got full digital, but have been
enjoying digital audio for many years on the D2-MAC channels). I am
recently Long on DISH, and this is based somewhat on my expectations
that DISH will soon copy the proven cash-generative ploys that BSB
have long since used on their (lucrative) UK operation. I am,
however, new to this thread, and appreciate you (and others) pointing out any key earlier posts.

Regarding the subscriber base, I'm sure you must already know of the
following, but in case you don't -

Many thanks for the offer on the WSJ article - I'd love to see an
electronic post, if anyone has one, but by the time snail-mail gets to
me I'm sure I'll have long since forgotten about it ! Besides which,
as I said, I doubt that it gives any more insight - i.e. just clarifies
what facts already exist.........

Finally, was I asleep or have the year end results not yet been released ? Hum.......
