    New Forum: The Merger Zone

    Ancient Telegraph and Torture is how I refer to them, of all the companies I've dealt with over the years this is the one that it felt the best leaving.

    Looks like It’s official Directv Buying Dish

    TPG is publicly traded. I'm not certain if that makes their filings the filings from heck, because they are listing the financials of a bazillion or so corporations they own. Or whether they all go under a single line item in an SEC filing.

    Well AT&T is selling their 70% stake... that hasn't happened yet nor been approved. I am hearing that could by itself take 9 months to a year for that to happen. And none of the rest of this merger stuff can go forward without that happening. Lots of moving pieces to this one.

    I'm looking forward to the merger and saying goodbye to AT&T, the company that turns gold into lead.

    I don't know about the DISH article, but the DIRECTV stallite article at Wikipedia is badly out of date.

    OTA Adapter Questions

    That is done by the individual station. THEY get the information for their programming. THEY publish it (to both providers and their PSIP). MVPDs just need to collect it and pass it along.

    Dish /Direct Merger Hits A Roadblock

    No it isn't. The terme of the deal as I understand it, which the bondholders have to approve, is they would have to exchange their current bonds for new ones with less principal value, maturing later, with a larger interest rate (higher annual return to bondholders). Their alternative if...

    D* would still be in the same shape it is now if ATT had not bought them.

    This is blessing 🙌. Att should have never been allowed to buy dtv. They should have stuck with there wireless and fiber since it's there bread and butter.

    OTA Adapter Questions

    The gist of the problem is the quantity of data required to fully cover every channel and sub-channel in the USA. We here in Lubbock Texas have about 48 channels to keep track of and we are in the median of the pack Larger cities have even more channels and the information on any one channel...

    One bummer result is we will no longer see the customer numbers and subscriber and operating details when the deal closes. Echostar DBS will be private like Directv with no more SEC filings.

    Yes, The broadcasters and the dumb FCC are the one's made the mess by radio spectrum TV repacking, allowing DRM and unneeded censorship making FTA OTA less attractive to the U.S. TV viewers, so they shot themselves in the foot!🙄😛

    I don't think they need to combine names, just use DTV or Dish Network.
