Can someone tell me how I can look online at my ameritrade account to check the status of my account. I do not have a margin account, only a cash account. So I assumed my shares were not being shorted.
TIA
Kevin
Yes, I just called Globetel and ask for him. I was transferred by the receptionist when I ask for him. The lady who answered the phone said he works there but was not in the office today.
Kevin
Cab - been here all along. As far as thoughts on how we will look in the next 30 days, I have no idea.
If the PR's we have been receiving are accurate, then the Mexico deal looks good and the technology must work.
The SpaWar and Trident trials says alot about our potential.
I would like to see and update on Sanswire/SKYSat.
I think my biggest fear is lack of funding. It seems like are closer than ever to the real deal with hotzone and Sanswire. At the same time we are on the brink of ruin. lol
I know this has not helped much.
Kevin
Another sanswire mention.
http://www.armadainternational.com/07-3/complete_07-3.pdf
Found a new powerpoint dated today that mentions Sanswire as a new technology. Nothing major, but nice to see the mention.

Great post DoctorS, I am still patiently waiting! lol Hope we can all look back and laugh about this whole thing someday.
Kevin
Now were talking, volume double in the last 15 min. WHOOOOOHEEEEEEHHAAHAHAHAHAHAH YEEEEAAAAA.
Ho hum. I'm still bored. LOL
Ready for real action.
Kevin
I was looking for sanswire video and I found this expert prediction about Stratellites being used in the future. HMMM ok, maybe he is not an expert, but he did mention the stratellite. lol
Stratellite mention about 48 seconds into video
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=5001260863619590210&q=stratellite&total=6&start=...
Atleast it is more interesting than our action today. LOL
Kevin
PS: and no it is not me or anyone I know. LOL
So now if they don't fill anymore today you get stuck with some expensive shares because of your trading fee. Seems like they look for any chance to get us little guys/gals.
Hope they fill ya.

GlobeTel's HotZone(TM) Demonstrates Connectivity and Flexibility at Military ExhibitionLast update: 6/26/2007 9:30:00 AMFORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., June 26, 2007 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- GlobeTel Communications Corp. (Pink Sheets: GTEM) today announced that it achieved its stated objectives, demonstrating Integrated Communications and Integrated Operations, at the 2007 Coalition Warrior Interoperability Demonstration (CWID), held at the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR) in San Diego, CA. Among GlobeTel's achievements at CWID during the two week period:
-- Demonstration of VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) using DECT (Digital Enhanced Cordless Telephone) phones and transmission of data, voice and video over GlobeTel's proprietary HotZone(TM) network, and the utility of the HotZone(TM) network with the integration of sensors, specifically a smoke detection system. -- The coverage of about one quarter of the SPAWAR campus with the HotZone(TM) wireless network, and establishment of a point-to-point connection from the SPAWAR campus to a support contractor two miles away, to allow an unclassified link to the Homeland Security Network (HLS) via the Internet. -- Effectively supporting a command and control link for a prototype Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV), a robotic Anti-Terrorism/Force Protection sentry. The vehicle is being tested as a perimeter guard. The HotZone(TM) transmitted both video, and command and control data to and from the control station and the UGV about a quarter-mile apart. -- In a show of cooperation and spontaneous integration, GlobeTel's HotZone(TM) assisted two trials by other invitees that were not able to connect to the HLS Network as planned. Using HotZone(TM), the two other entities were easily able to connect to the network and complete their trials successfully."I'm not surprised our HotZone(TM) technology had a successful showing at CWID, but I'm especially proud we were able to showcase the true beauty and flexibility of HotZone(TM), and of GlobeTel," stated Peter Khoury, Chief Executive Officer. "I'm extremely proud of our GlobeTel/Sanswire technical team's expertise along with the entire staff for ensuring CWID was a success for us. I look forward to follow-up demonstrations and relationships our participation there could yield." CWID is the Chairman of the Joint Chief of Staff's annual event for demonstrating command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance technologies to combatant commanders from US armed services, NATO, and allies. About GlobeTel Communications Corp. and Sanswire Networks GlobeTel Communications Corp. develops and provides an integrated suite of terrestrial and aerospace telecommunications products and services, leveraging its advances in VoIP and Wireless Access technologies.

Frontline Wireless Plan Endorsed By Senate Panel ChairLast update: 6/14/2007 10:55:29 AM
By Corey Boles
Of DOW JONES NEWSWIRES
WASHINGTON (Dow Jones)--A plan to build a national wireless broadband network for use by the country's public-safety workers received an important boost Thursday when the chairman of a powerful Senate panel endorsed it. Sen. Daniel Inouye, D-Hawaii, the chairman of the Senate Commerce Committee, said the plan, created by a group called Frontline Wireless, would represent a "paradigm shift" in the way public safety communications have been managed and operated. "In my opinion, we are well past the question of whether we should help first responders build and operate a nationwide, interoperable broadband network," Inouye said at a hearing regarding evidence into the upcoming auction of lucrative radio spectrum. "Instead, it is time that we focus on what we must do to accomplish this goal as quickly as possible." Frontline wants the Federal Communications Commission to tweak the rules of the auction to enable it to bid for a chunk of the spectrum. It would piece that together with some spectrum already earmarked for use by public safety and then build a broadband network. The plan is controversial, as it would go against a well-established tradition for auction rules and likely mean the federal government would raise less money from the auction. It is opposed by several groups, including the large telecommunications companies such as Verizon Communications Inc. (VZ). Richard J. Lynch, executive vice president and chief technical officer at Verizon, told the panel hearing that the plan would deter innovation and wouldn't benefit consumers. "The FCC should decline to impose eligibility, wholesale, open access or net neutrality requirements on the band," Lynch said in his opening remarks to the hearing. Sen. Ted Stevens, R-Alaska, the vice chairman of the Senate committee, said there were still questions in his mind about the viability of the plan. "Who will really control the spectrum is the most important issue," Stevens said. Another lawmaker, Sen. John Sununu, R-N.H., said the conditions asked for by Frontline would limit the number of potential bidders to the spectrum auction and therefore the revenue raised for the federal government. Republican Sen. Gordon Smith, Ore., said that while the plan proposed by Frontline wasn't perfect, he was still able to support it. "Let's not wait until the next disaster to start working on the construction of a nationwide broadband network," Smith said. Also appearing before the hearing was James L. Barksdale, a well-known hi-tech entrepreneur and one of Frontline's backers. "We believe the upcoming 700-megahertz auction presents a once-in-a-generation opportunity for building a nationwide interoperable public safety network while also enhancing competition and innovation in wireless broadband," Barksdale said. Individual FCC commissioners have made it clear that in order for Frontline's plan to have a chance to be successful, it needs to have the endorsement of the public-safety community. Testifying before the hearing on behalf of emergency services workers, Wanda McCarley, a 911 operations and training manager in Fort Worth, Texas, offered that endorsement. "Our support for such a public-private partnership flows from our realization that there is simply no other viable method to pay for a national broadband network that will meet public safety requirements," said McCarley. She appeared on behalf of two Washington-based public safety lobby groups: the Association of Public Safety Communications Officials International and the National Public Safety Telecommunications Council. The FCC is set to finalize the rules for the spectrum auction within the next month in order to allow potential bidders sufficient time to prepare their business plans and line up funding. The FCC is mandated by Congress to begin the auction by the end of January. Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-W.V., suggested lawmakers might need to consider delaying the start of the auction by a couple of months to give the FCC more time to finalize the rules. The 60 megahertz of spectrum to be auctioned is widely seen as the most lucrative to possibly ever come available. It is coming available because television broadcasters are moving to a digital signal from analog, which requires less spectrum. -By Corey Boles, Dow Jones Newswires; 202-862-6637; corey.boles@dowjones.com
Anyone here put that trade through? LOL I guess the MMs do watch the boards.
I was going to ask the same question. I have looked around to see if we were halted, but have found nothing.
Kevin
Come on nerd, it will inflate on the way down, so we don't need 142 foot of cargo space. Don't you every watch movies, I'm sure Bond could do it. LOL
Now that would be cool. Would love to see that one on Yourtube! LOL

I have not seen that one yet. Great find! Thanks for sharing.
What about the HotZone WiMAX 7000?
From this link: (my bold)
http://www.globetelwireless.com/hotzone5000.html
Configuration - Connections to the backbone network and between outdoor elements are made through the integrated Ethernet switch in the HotZone WiMAX 7000. An RJ-45 10/100/1000 Ethernet uplink port is included in the HotZone WiMAX 7000 and an optional SFP module for 10/100/1000BaseT copper or 1000BaseX fiber connections can be purchased.
Flexibility - The base station configuration is flexible enough to allow for high density urban deployments, point-point backhaul and low density rural rollouts. Point-point backhaul can be used to connect the cell with other cells, main backbone interconnection points or create multiple point-point links to high data rate subscribers.
Versatility - Point-point backhaul links can be established using two HotZone WiMAX 5000s, 1 HotZone WiMAX 5000 and 1 HotZone WiMAX 5100, or 2 HotZone WiMAX 5100 units depending on data rate and distance requirements.
I sent an email to Thanh Vo in Sacramento asking about the status of the wireless service for Sacramento.
Here is the reply:
The City will announce the bid results in late June 2007.

Nothing big, but Globetel has updated the firmware for the IAD 100 and IAD 200.
http://www.thevoipconnection.com/forums/index.php?topic=629.0
It is significant in the sense that it shows they are still running that part of the business.

I had seen the 5000 mentioned on the site before, but I never noticed the HotZone WiMAX 7000. See bold below from the products page.

RESOLUTION NO. C-23
RELATING TO NEAR SPACE PLATFORMS IN SUPPORT OF AIR FORCE SPACE COMMAND JOINT WARFIGHTER SPACE EFFORTS
Background:
The Air National Guard recently completed tests on a free-floating near space balloon capability, Combat SkySat, with the test results showing increased ground-to-ground communications from the normal 8-12 miles to over 500 miles using standard Land Mobile Radios (LMRs). These successful tests have drawn the interest of theater combatant commanders and joint tactical war fighting units.
The relatively low-cost balloons operating between 65,000 and 100,000 feet with a radio relay payload can greatly increase the communications capability of ground forces. This new technology has successfully transferred voice and data in both secure and unsecured modes in a number of tests. Additional tests are being conducted to attach different types of payloads to the balloon that could provide persistent intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance capabilities as well as critical data link gateways. The high altitude balloons are highly reliable platforms that allow quick response times and long duration flights.
Recommendation:
The National Guard Association of the United States recommends that the National Guard Bureau, the Department of Defense, and the Congress of the United States authorize and appropriate funding to stand-up the United States military’s first near space squadron. This unit will operate a deployable, free-floating balloon system for tactical use by joint warfighters.

This is a question I am asking, because I don't know if it is even possible.
Is it possible that they are going to "Redeploy" the centerline switches and other equipment to Globetel Wireless or the JV. Can the equipment being used there also be used for a hotzone network, support, or billing process?
TIA

First I have seen it. I did post the following yesterday, which has alot of the same info, but does mention Globetel and SkySat
Thanks

They have to make a mountain out of a mole hill because with all the bashing they were only able to cover 8,162 short shares last month. They still have 3,609,669 to go. lol
Thei article may have already been posted, I just don't remember seeing it. (My bold)
1 SOLAR PANELS The design hasn't been finalized, but the unmanned radar airship will likely use top-mounted solar cells to stay aloft for up to a year.
2 PROPULSION The airship will probably rely on low-speed electric propellers: It's intended to stay in one posi-
tion, at an altitude of more than 65,000 ft., for extended periods
3 RADAR ARRAY The curved array will be attached to the airship's super-structure, and will be able to monitor a 400-plus-mile swath of rural and urban terrain.
"Project ISIS" has the ring of a James Bond movie, but it actually comes from an acronym (albeit a clumsy one) for a new curved radar array being developed by Raytheon and DARPA, the Pentagon's research arm. The Integrated Sensor Is Structure concept calls for such arrays running along the wings, tail and underbelly of military or commercial aircraft. Eventually, it could replace the flat-panel radar antennas typically found in a plane’s nose, providing improved surveillance capabilities and better 360-degree threat detection. ISIS technology is set to debut in 2009 as part of a colossal unmanned airship parked at more than 65,000 ft. over combat zones. Bonding the ISIS radar to the airship's superstructure will cut down on overall weight, and allow for a huge, continuous array. At anywhere from 164 to 328 yards in length, the airship will be the largest airborne radar antenna ever built, able to track everything from aircraft to individual troops across hundreds of miles. Controlled remotely from the ground, the airship will ascend to the stratosphere and could take the place of standard surveillance aircraft, remaining in place for up to a year. Parts of the curved radar array have been tested successfully in the lab by Raytheon, but at press time no contracts had been announced for the design of the airship itself.

Never mind, not airship radar. YET:)
