Any news or is it price technical?

The way I see it, it has to be news. The stock is in the middle of a trading range, and has been moving against the technicians for the last few sessions. The trades did happen below the current best bid, so one has to wonder whether the follow-up activity was a reaction.

DBCC data delivery integrity:Extensive System Redundancy at SpaceCom Teleport Averts Widespread Data Outage

"...For the millions of paging customers, radio listeners and real-time computer systems across the nation whose data arrived normally, it seemed as though nothing happened. ''For our customers, it was simply business as usual...their network sites continued receiving their data in the normal reliable fashion,'' commented Hartanovich. ''Although it's not a sexy hero story, the fact is this: SpaceCom's backup systems and uninterruptible power supplies saved the day - and the day-to-day operations of our customers' networks.'' Without the CIT's extensive redundancy, a lot of the nation's truly vital communications networks simply would not have gotten through during the blizzard,'' Hartanovich added.

SpaceCom's Chicago International Teleport, one of the nation's premier satellite earth stations, is equipped with multiple redundant backup systems. In addition to uninterruptible power supplies, the CIT's backup systems include alternate fiber-optic routing, ''hot standby'' equipment, geographically diverse uplink facilities, and spare satellite transponders already in orbit...SpaceCom provides 24-hour satellite network services and equipment to clients in a wide range of industries, including:

o National paging companies, like PageNet, SkyTel, PageMart and AT&T Wireless Services. (SpaceCom serves the majority of the Top 20 paging companies in the U.S., plus a long list of local and regional paging operations.)

o National radio networks, including ABC Radio Networks, Jones Satellite Networks, USA Radio Network, and American Urban Radio Network.

o Financial data services, including PC Quote, Data Broadcasting Corporation [Nasdaq:DBCC - news], and FutureSource..."
