So now GE is a 2008 story? Like I said, something is fishy with that particular subplot
Regardless of what you think it will do the the surprise factor, if TKO can get close to $5 million in the second quarter, that will have to at least start to spark some interest by people who have been watching. $3-4M is what was put out publically, so that is the bogie. Obviously, the true colors will not be shown by one good quarter, but it should keep the ones who are in already around for a while longer.
I don't recall last year's total revenue, but I am guessing a $4+ quarter will be close to half of it. Year over year comparison for 2nd quarter will be strong. As always, it will then turn to follow through with 3rd qtr.
What he shared on the board, Isaiah, was what his broker friend, who spoke with RP and MP, were told by RP and MP....this guy is merely passing on the meat of a presentation GIVEN by TKO on their bicycle ride to the tutes.
He did not 'make it up', and it is not bashing--the info came 'straight from the horses mouth' (RP).
Remember, RP is trying to get the tutes to invest money in TKO.
So perhaps, once again, embellishment was deemed necessary...hopefully the number is reachable.
I do not like what this guy is trying to do because they never said 5 million in CC they said 3-4 million. He is trying to raise expectations so if it comes in less there will be disappointment. By putting this out he is also trying to take away any element of surprise which is what this company needs
Copied from the Yahoo board:
report (Not rated) 12 minutes ago ........heresay.............
It is accurate that RP was in Richmond yesterday.
My update from broker friend was that an optimistic tale was told with real work occurring at a reasonable pace with follow up monthly revenue streams being created by Ethostream.
Installations are supposedly occurring at a rapid pace in EDS and TSA areas. GE is alive but is more of a 2008 potential. Trump type work is still occurring but that also is more of a revenue stream model than a big sale eevent.
The number I was quoted for Q2 sales was below the $5 million number but reasonably rapid acceleration is supposed to occur. (Please note the massive use of "suppose") Q3 and q4 should (supposedly) be enough to help the stock valuation
............now opinion..............
After the last CC and to not simply rant against the past (and of course to stay in good graces with the Major, one of the cutest cartoon women I know) I decided to accept that TKO has earned another last chance (I love country music) to perform
Similar to my last rant, I did hear (second hand) some response from RP regarding disgruntled sharholders that went along the lines "not able to be concerned with what a lot of folks gossipping on the internet think and we're just moving forward"
That's just close enough to the "damn the little people" attitude from the CC that absolutely enraged me to reignite me a bit.
When your stcok goes from $6 to a buck sixty-five there is some accountability due. Especailly when money is being made in miners, shippers, energy, telecommunications etc.
Just a simple, "we have over promised", or "our implementation and acceptance has taken loner than we expected" (or something similar) goes so much further than blaming the people that invested (=trusted) in your dream.
I still find that attitude offesnsive.
Oh, I did ask my buddy if RP came across as a dyed hair out of touch buffoon and he answered "not at all"
Then again this guy has been my friend for 30 years so what the heck does he know about character.
I ain't selling but I ain't buying either. There'll be plenty of time for buying when performance kicks in.
Hunka Hunka and best wishes to all.

Well, it looks like our giant three cent increase in pps today is about to disappear. Gotta love this stock
Any new conspiracy theories anyone can hatch today on why TKO is below $1.70? As I said yesterday, it sure seems hard for this to break $1.64...good support as we approach $1.60. But, if we get below that, watch out below.
Then again, everyone has already agreed that I'm the genius on the TKO board, so I appreciate your support.
could be... although, even if MST is bought out, I think TKO gear is still the best, only bet for them to successfully deploy their signal through a MDU.
Thanks,
Sirius and Huey for sharing some of your thoughts in relation to TKO and MSHI.. I haven't heard the interview, as of yet anyway..
In the Telkonet CC, RP alluded to a 'soon to be rollout' to another city for MSHI.. Unless I misunderstood, it sounded like Frank (didn't) specify anything concrete to this happening to the 'soon' respect that Huey mentioned in his post.. If that is correct, would have been a good time to inform that to shareholders.. Of course, if RP knew it to be happening in the 1st place...
ALSO, as noted earlier, the email I posted today, mentions that RP is the Pres....but it does NOT say ANYthing about RP is the CEO of TKO in his two line BIO. They mentioned Digital Angel, which IMO, was a big mistake...but then I didn't write the stuff....BUT Digital Angel shareholders were 'raped' as well....but so long ago, maybe no one will look it up.
To me, there is concerted effort to separate Frank from TKO, and TKO from any involvement in MST......and I will even take this one step further---PERHAPS with no mention of RP being CEO of TKO, change is happening quickly as I write. Now, the thing is that we all have to keep our eyes peeled for an 8K...because IF this is what is happening, and they fail to report via 8-K...they in bigggggg dooooo-dooooo
I agree with you re Frank and his presentation, BTW. I listened carefully....and every question that gave opportunity to mention TKO---like subsidiary, or had worked with them, or was a part of TKO instead of MSTI something....no where was there mention of TKO or RP, or even the arrangement between the two of them that applied to MDU's--and Roosevelt Island, et al that PR'd under the TKO ticker way back when, were mentioned...but not one mention of TKO today--who ALSO works with MDU's.
As I listened, I focused intensly on the answers, and the one thing that stood out to me, was that there was NO mention of TKO. Now, I am merely asking myself the question why the 'separation' of the two companies seemed purposeful...and my answer to myself, was that PERHAPS it was because in a very short period of time, TKO and MST would be parting ways...and to keep things UNcomplicated for investors...the beginning of the separation is NOW, in their public presentations.
Sonny makes a good point..
Telkonet and Microwave Satelite need to use care when appearing on the MN1 network.. I am aware of several attitudes toward MN1, as well.. Accordingly, they believe that MN1 can be a negative environment and very unprofessional at times..
The key to that is having a Smart CEO who is well prepared and knows his company.. The successful General is always able to 'outflank' his opponent.. When positive, the exposure is most always of benefit..
Also aware of an individual who worked for MN1 earlier this year, who has now left them, due to not agreeing to the behavior of MN1...
I didn't necessarily hear anything indicating or implying a potential sale, but that might be the case. If they can get a few large subscriber bases put in place to develop revenue, I think that would help with the interest from potential buyers. If the technology is really good, the big boys might be interested from the standpoint of instant access to a new market.
LA - as far as MN1.com being bad, I don't think merely doing an interview will send the stock down, but probably more related to what the people say. I think a lot of the penny stock companies are run by people who are not real polished, so a stock turning down might be due to the message, and not the conduit through which it is delivered. I thought Frank sounded intelligent and confident.
Check out the ibox..it looks good huh..now I want the pps to follow
I am surprised you never heard of MN1..I dont know why penny players think this way but heard they will try to throw you off guard or something...
wallst.net is much a better choice when it comes interview..
Until today, I had not heard of them....so my qusestion, naturally, is "Why do they think that?" My GEEKERS from BB just left---boy they are awesome!!!!
Wow...that was ugly!!!!
TKO was ripped a new one today. The folks at Think Equity may be right yet. It is funny how this stock follows the market. When the market is up, TKO is down. When the market is down, TKO goes down even more. The market is a great predictor for TKO stock, I guess. Maybe if the market finished flat, TKO would go up. Sort of like picking green on the roulette wheel...green doesn't come up very often, but when it does, watch out!!!!
$1.65...we have officially met the old 52 week low...the new one is within site...ready...aim...
Sell orders are getting bigger and going lower.
Can we set the old 52-week low? This stock is a special breed, isn't it?
$1.66...getting closer to that free fall point
HUGE SELL orders popping up...this is not good
Sirius,
Most penny players think that MN1 will only do harm on a stock instead of good..
Again...nothing new was offered in that interview. Old promises were recycled and that is about all. Why do you need to start rumors about a possible buyout. It doesn't help those that didn't listen. As with TKO's cc, nothing new was offered on the interview. No buyout. No new contracts. No new partners. No new cities. Nada.
Perhaps---I did not intend to make a judgement on 'good, or bad'...my intent was to simply share what I thought would happen.....based on what I just listened to, my guess is that TKO will be selling MST--and to me, that is a good thing for MST....and would infuse cash now, into TKO as well.....a 'quick-fix', if you will.
Sometimes what is NOT spoken, is louder than what IS....
Good stuff from Frank...he said they were going to bring MSHI to other cities besides New York...haven't heard that one before. There was nothing on that interview that would lead anyone to believe that MSHI was about to be bought by anyone.
Now I'm hearing that RP is not out meeting anyone. That is precious. Nobody can supposedly find the man. Maybe that is why TKO is getting hammered.
what would be the bad thing about them being sold off for cash? I am guessing the TKO stake would be a pretty significant cash infusion. I know, I know, RP and others would also make out well base on owning a fair % of the company. But regardless, TKOs stake would be far more than what they were getting out of it otherwise before the spinoff.
I am misreading your post?
Listened to Frank's interview on MN1.com. They didn't even mention TKO throughout the interview, which is OK I guess. Frank mentioned that proof would be in the pudding when the numbers come out regarding their growth. Hopefully we will see some positive sales. Although it would be nice if TKO owned 100% of MSTI, I still think it will be positive for TKO when MSTI does well.
He also mentioned the convergence of TV and internet, and that they want their service to be repeated in other markets. The thought of essentially franchising the company in other cities is enticing, so hopefully that will come to pass. If they can get to the point that people can have ale carte (?) cable programming, thereby paying for the channels they want, that would be a hell of a product.
ok...did anyone else listen to the interview other than me?
ASFAIC....there were a lot of things that came to light--and my guess is this: I betcha MST is gonna be sold off to someone....for cash. ANYBODY? (BTW, MLK. I have you on ignore for now---so do not waste your time and limited posts for the day by answering to my call for opinions...thanks)
Frank's interview is over, and NO mention of TKO...I think MSHI may be the play between these two companies, as TKO flounders and MSHI seems to be excelling
Wow...$1.67...this stock is getting hammered today
If a tree falls in the woods and nobody's around to hear it, or if a poster posts a post and everyone has him/her on ignore then...... hmmm
right! that was my point! TKO not mentioned anywhere! Just logged back on...and will try my best to listen to that CC....one of two things COULD happen...MST being bought by someone or 2. NOT!
No longer buying TKO at $1.64...found a better deal out there that I think will reward me handsomely over the next few years...I may have to start shifting all of my TKO money at some point if I'm offered further discounts...average price of my TKO is now between $2.08 and $2.09...I hope we make it back to that level, but I'm not too sure now.
Also seems odd that the MST PRs are not being also released under the TKO symbol. It seems that most of the announcements for any related parties in the past have shown up under TKO also.
On the Yahoo page for MSTI there are three PRs out on MST today. Frank is on an internet interview at 1:15 Central time. Hopefully they are running up to an announcement regarding the aquisition that is supposed to be coming. The announcement this morning that MST is a certified provider of telecom services will hopefully lead to another revenue stream that can be added at little or no additional cost.
Might be interesting to watch the interview to see what Frank is up to...
The market is showing amazing resilience and coming back significantly from the lows of today despite warnings from Home Depot, Sears, etc. Yet, TKO continually flounders. What will save this company. It certainly won't be losses (ie., earnings) in early August. No rumors have circulated for months, so I don't think we can expect any new partners ready to buy TKO products. We can't expect the 200 product anytime soon. I think all we have left is an enlarging sinkhole.
All I can say is thank goodness RP is on the bicycle tour...can you imagine where TKOs price would be if he wasn't out actively selling the company? We could already be below $1.50...I'm just glad that all that selling has led somebody to pick up a whopping 65,000 shares today.
Anyone else starting to get the feeling that the recent transaction involving MSHI was really intended as a way for RP and company to start over. Maybe TKO is really the shell. Maybe MSHI which has seen its pps go from less than $1 to over $1.40 is really the company that has the potential for long term profit. Maybe TKO is headed to Think Equity land?
I have to agree to some extent. If we go below $1.60, however, watch out below. As we get closer to $1.60, we seem to have a little support...I know I offer some at $1.64 that I can't seem to get filled. Thinking of revising that lower however. But, we are seemingly getting closer every week. Perhaps it is the fact that TKO had to revise guidance lower on the recently completed CC. Perhaps its the fact that they haven't seemingly been able to do anything with the GE relationship that was forged about six months ago and hasn't gone anywhere. Perhaps its the fact that they need money again and may need to go back to the market to acquire it. Perhaps its due to the fact that every PR that comes out from the company lacks any revenue figure whatsoever. They seemingly do business with other companies just to issue a PR, thinking that will pay the bills somehow. Perhaps its the fact that everyone in the world now recognizes that RP is incapable of moving the company forward in any meaningful manner and must now hire a COO at further expense to shareholders and the company. Perhaps its the fact that the biggest cheerleaders this company has had over the past several years, GLL and Pizz, have dumped thousands of shares at TKO's lowest pps. Perhaps its the fact that Murphy and all his followers are becoming disenchanted with the story. Perhaps its the fact that TKO has never ever turned one profitable quarter. Perhaps its the fact that most knowledgable people understand that spinning off MSHI is a accounting gimmick that warrants a lower TKO pps. All this bad news has supposedly been priced into the stock. If one or two more shoes drop we will be in trouble...and shoeless. I hope your socks don't have holes in them.
OH! AND i hope you take note of the 'officers' section of this article--please read about Ron Pickett, Pres. of MST..there is ABSOLUYELY no mention, NONE, of TKO in his bio sentence.
Just got this email re: MSHI.ob, the TKO subsidiary we know as MST---you know, the 'reason' given, as to why TKO had no profit? I just wanted to be sarcastic, and 'fit in'....hahahahahahaha....any rate, MST is being pumped today...here it is.....

You are right I think BUY BUY BUY...no risk no reward.
Any T&A guys out here? Looks to me a double bottom around $1.60 area. Tough to make a case with this stock. If that breaks next support I saw as $ 1.16. We need news and a new fulltime CEO! Part of me says this a buying opp and the other part is saying you fool !
Ah woops, I thought he was serious and I am on my first cup of coffee still. And yes, I am from NY, we only speak sarcasm here!
Speaking of upticks, there are none anywhere on my screen today except goog :(
Ha ha funny stuff.
RBT,
Do you understand sarcasm?
Its just a reference to a trade above the last sale price. IE: if a trade goes off at 29.50 and the next trade is 29.51. That is an uptick.
Can anyone tell me what an up tick is?
It seems this poor board is in a sorry state. I go away for a few days and it appears everyone has left the room except for mlk. Did he run everyone off or has everyone sold and gone elsewhere??
OT**I read some comments over the weekend abouy Apple and a couple of other stocks making money. I even saw Cramers name dropped as a source. He, Cramer has his Four Horsemen of tech which all will rise till who knows. They are Apple, Google, Research in Motion, and surprisingly Amazon. You will want to be in these by this fall when tech stocks run till end of Q4 and hopefully by then TKO will be ready to run...I have owned AAPL, RIMM, and GOOG for some time now...
Side note First Solar was up huge today and has been on a tear...
Not looking very good tomorrow in the market. Down day sure to come...hopefully TKO can buck the trend.

Telkonet’s patented powerline communications (PLC) systems – the Telkonet iWire System and next generation 200 Mbps Telkonet Series 5 – use a building’s existing internal electrical wiring to enable Internet connectivity throughout an entire building, converting electrical outlets into high-speed data ports. This is an ideal solution for properties that are not wired with CAT-5 or where CAT-5 is cost-prohibitive.
The EthoStream Gateway Server (EGS) product line of gateway devices, which are developed in-house, deliver wired or wireless high-speed Internet access, integrating easily with any combination of WAN connections. The EGS products range from a cost-effective gateway for limited use applications to a feature-rich, dual-WAN, scalable gateway for full-service properties.
Telkonet’s energy management systems, Telkonet SmartEnergy (TSE) and Networked Telkonet SmartEnergy (NTSE), reduce in-room energy consumption by controlling heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) usage based on occupancy. By eliminating unnecessary heating and cooling of vacant rooms, TSE typically reduces energy consumption by 30% or greater.
Telkonet’s proactive support center brings quality of service to a new level with its dedicated, in-house employees, 24/7/365 support, and integrated proactive monitoring and management tools that put property management in control. By integrating the EthoStream Gateway Server and the web-based Telkonet CENTRAL, our in-house support team has real-time visibility into a property’s HSIA usage and data, as well as ISP status.
Telkonet SmartEnergy™ (TSE) controls HVAC usage and improves energy efficiency by adjusting and maintaining a room’s temperature based on occupancy, using a combination of occupancy sensors, intelligent programmable thermostats or packaged terminal air conditioner (PTAC) controllers. TSE eliminates wasteful heating and cooling of vacant rooms without compromising an occupant’s comfort based on our patented Recovery Time™ technology.
Building on the proven capabilities of the TSE system and incorporating Telkonet's unique Recovery Time™ technology, our new Networked Telkonet SmartEnergy (NTSE) advances intelligent HVAC building control with a flexible, resilient and low-cost energy management platform. NTSE utilizes a ZigBee wireless IEE802.15.4 “mesh” network, where each device functions as a wireless repeater and enables energy management thermostats to communicate with each other and aggregate communications up to a single master NTSE Gateway Server on site. NTSE enables central control without needing expensive back-haul wiring. Its key monitoring and analysis features ensure optimum energy savings, giving property owners the tools to identify and implement energy savings, providing total visibility and detailed data about a property's HVAC system and its energy consumption, together with real-time, instant remote management capabilities.
Key features and benefits of NTSE
Telkonet’s proprietary, patented powerline communications (PLC) products harness a building’s internal electrical wiring to form an IP network, turning power outlets into data ports, while leaving the electrical functionality unaffected. Telkonet’s PLC systems – the Telkonet iWire System and the 200 Mbps Telkonet Series 5 – represent a quick, economical, and non-disruptive way to achieve high-speed Internet connectivity throughout a building. Telkonet’s PLC systems offer the hard-wired security and reliability of a CAT-5 cabled network, but without the cost, physical disturbance and business disruption of wiring CAT-5. For properties looking to provide wireless coverage, Telkonet’s systems can be used to feed WiFi access points, which can be connected quickly and simply to any power outlet.
Series 5 Comparison “With 209 sites and limited numbers of IT technicians, we needed a reliable, plug-and-play system that was easy to install, maintain and operate. With Telkonet’s solution, we demonstrated that our own IT staff and contract electricians could install the system…”
Steve Custer, Supervisor CCTV/LAN Networking and A.V. Repair, Hillsborough County School District (SDHC)
