@darkstarsats 3/x $NN) so while you are calling $NN's 15 MHz of low a "small slice" in reality it is not much smaller than what $T bought, and it could be multiples of what they have AVAILABLE

@darkstarsats 2/x $NN) This why $T bought 20 mhz of low band from $ECHO. $VZ and $TMUS have more subs than $T and about the same amount of low band. Logically, $VZ and $TMUS must also be dealing with low band congestion.

@LaughingH20Cap Sep 24

@darkstarsats 1/x $NN) you note that carriers "control" ~50 mhz of low-band each. respectfully, "control" is clearly not the relevant variable. how much they have AVAILALBLE is what matters. $T commented that they were capacity constrained on low band.

$SLM Effective July 1st 2026 H.R.1 parent plus loans now capped, elimination of grad plus loans, universal lifetime federal caps. Takeaway: TAM expands Started late 2025: They are selling the loans instead of keeping them. Boosting ROE and maintaining servicing fee income. It’s like what Peter Lynch noticed about Fannie Mae Also just continued massive cannibilization with a ASR June 2026 and many more over past 2 years
