E-Sat is jointly owned by DBSS and Echostar.

DBSS also owns stock in Echostar.

The stock did react Friday.

You are right. The press releases have nothing to do with DBSS.

Also DBSS has no ownership interest in EchoStar.

Does anyone out there have a handle on the prospects for DBSS?

TIA

DBSS and EchoStar are kissin' cousins. DBSS is a wannabe low earth orbit(LEO) operator with a niche market in Automated Meter Reading. It has a license via E-Sat, a company owned by DISH and DBSS, but has no birds launched. It seeks a strategic partner and long term investment. It owned DISH stock in the past by virtue of its sale to them of DBSC, a company holding a GEO license. It no longer owns that stock and it has no need to use DISH' birds which are GEO not LEO.

DBSS is very well positioned and has a high level of expertise in the sat arena. Just add money and away it goes!
