$NN No matter how many times the opposition states there will be interference, the real world testing is not indicating any interference is happening. Squeaky wheels sometime get greased in DC. The opposition seems to be looking for some grease from their contrary stance.

$NN Technical matters in regard to spectrum, like interference, should be resolved by FCC engineers. These engineers have decades of knowledge and experience. In this clip, every speaker agreed the appropriations committee was out of line and was not the correct forum. https://t.co/TwvTZj1kr0

$NN Opposition to NN's modernization of the 900 MHz band wasn't convincing FCC engineers of non-existent interference. They then tried to gum of the works by adding language in an amendment of the appropriations committee.

$NN Interference is the primary criticism of the NN proposal to modernize the 900 MHz band. In this clip from last week's Congressional testimony, the CEO carefully describes how no interference is being reported in their extensive test zone. https://t.co/xgZV0iXCGe

$NN Mariam was poised, knowledgeable and well spoken. In this attached clip, Mariam states no interference has been reported in all the years of testing. The opposition doesn't have any specific examples of interference. https://t.co/ySdZeVAWjc

$NN I have been approached by folks about last weeks Congressional hearing. I watched the entire hearing and spoke to well informed participants. The opinion is that the hearing went exactly as hoped. This was not a political debate in which a candidate tries to land a punch.

If/when @altcap and $NVDA sell their shares in the next year or two, how is this different then what Andrew left did twitting a thesis and going to do the opposite shortly after?? That was deemed illegal and I am sure there they'll blame some event in the near future that disrupted their thesis, etc but this feels no different then self promotion in the opposite direction Bigger issue is existing shareholders from dramatically lower prices going on a retail oriented TV program to hype their holdings to buy in at inflated prices is blatantly perfidious and morally bankrupt. Bookmark this for when they sellout. Amazon ipo at a $438m valuation and Google at a $27B valuation by law of large numbers his statement is already categorically false unless all of GDP will be produced by these 3 companies
