Dueto "leaving" Miteq... ohh I forgot, quitting is bad for losers like us, but for him quitting was "a strategic move, after Axel Kiis (famous x-Presient of Miteq) died. Anyway,
can you calculate (present)2020-2001 (or -1999)
How many years is that ???
I see all the time companies born & achieve something in a couple years in terms of Revenue/per capita of involved personnel.
If you make <$250K/capita/year after several years of existance w/sort of funding he elected (spent own money & destroyed FICA Score, initially), you might be in trouble, UNLESS you're in some far-fetched State-of-the-Art research funded by OPM (Other People's Money) but that's wasn't AmpliTech; i.e. it wasn't & isn't "Bells Labs" of sorts, or IBM TJ Watson Research Centre circa 1940's or creating Cloak on Invisibility, Null Transport, or Immortality solution (Aubrey De Grey), or such. Even though initially, AmpliTech riding on Miteq's "know-how" (despite hypocrisy of accusing of same thing of bringing much knowledge out of Amplitech, by his/other employees !!) was achieving several milestones, e.g. supplied several units to even (!) NIST, Raytheon, Boeing, & several other coveted/impressive customers, but financially what does "afew units" mean? - it's just a "vehicle" to instill confidence in OTHER, more "mass-product" customers, UNLESS the small-qty/"esoteric" customers pay enormous profit margin... but they didn't. Selling 10 pieces of whatever LNAmp doesn't feed your company of several people & Test equipment, it's just a good P.R.
In fact LowNoise fatcor co. of Sweden was/still doing same "academic excercizes" except they were able to widen applications & not w/o my input/criticism to their managers & key distributor, I just told them what blocks their esoteric application from mass-market (most DCbiasing, input overload, etc. problems associated w/unreliable Phosphides material at room/commercial temp. rather than cryo/labs).
It's just AMPLIFIERS, built mostly by textbooks, classics, like Pozar's book & some super-thick book Miteq unloaded onto me in 2005 & such.
(Miteq had a bad habit of publishing TOO MUCH Tech info, hoping replicating it is hardly possible dueto enormous investments esp. fiber-optics, but Chinese had no issue w/Government drecting mass money into "priority" projects, in my opinion & I warned them to quit publishing, they agreed but the "machine" was slow to react, they continued self-damaging)
Note: this is a RANT, so expected to be annoyed w/truth!
You people are kids.
There's no way to exist since 2001 or 1999 and STILL keep "projecting" for a Public co. BUT as a private business is OK - created jobs, feeds people, owner wasn't greedy/got paid only since recently (& even now underpaid), e.g. Fawad (owner, CEO, chief engineer/designer, 2 or 3 University degrees) was driving some of the WORST CARS in AmpliTech's parking lot for years, worse than his non-college educated employees - that's how he sacrificed himself, until recently, gave big perks to employees when he couldn't afford cash like free housing, ultra-flex.schedule, etc, etc. So as a private co, credit goes out to Fawad.
But as a Public co. claiming what it DID in PR's & other promos & etc. claims - it's a "hotair baloon"... are you afraid of folks like JNY (?) & "Steven" from poking your baloon w/a "truth" finger?
See, Fawad does have a talent besides Technical/Executive talent, namely - he can "Convince", at least he COULD in past, that "white is black & black is white", i.e. he was a "Confidence Artist/Master", he'd make you so excited & driven, if you went to Engr.Management classes they teach you it is one of the traits of a Leadership (talent), OK... except stuff he promoted wasn't quite as big as pictured & numerous times.
Do you know the documents I've seen?? I've seen Business Plan(s) & Growth Charts presented to investors like in "ancient times" - around y2002-2003, it projected making around $20 Million ($15M adjust for inflation) revenue around y2006-7 or so, ha! We all know the real figures, & no don't mention "Great Recession" b/c it happaned only/after y2008, also State-of-the-Art tech co. shouldn't be subject to severe effect from commodity/consumer/subprime lending crisis, anyway... if you got a nice product NOBODY can do (as PR's claimed).
The story w/joint.venture w/"Brain Waves co." ("Jedi Mind of California", later dueto a lawsuit of Lucas Film (trademark) renamed to "Mind technologies"), which I worked hard for (wrote a lengthy mixed Presentation/Research ["White Paper"] serving as one of the factors that Jedi's company's owner/execs visited AmpliTech & formed a joint turned out tobe a hot baloon, and guess what - I almost KNEW IT from first 10 minutes of fawad starting the talk, but I was obliged to work hard under heavy spell/conviction/belief that Fawad knows something I cannot comprehend. Unfortunately i was right, on technical level, that Jedi had no technical resources to interpret Brain Waves, DARPA funded more real players in this area & Amplitech's frequencies in RF/MW (>0.3GHz) meant NOTHING for ultra-low freq. of Brainwaves & Instrumentation OpAmps I envisioned oen must use... turned out to be true.
Or another example, a brieft stint w/hiring a total more on "Nick" & his crazy son, to "help" Amplitech run accounting - was more like disrupt it, I couldn't stand Nick, in fact his son was more pleasant albent mental patient, why? - the guy spent a lifetime in heavy metals & Steel recycling, so we so desperate to hire this electronic more on just b/c o fhis "money bag"? OK it happens all the time in business, EXCEPT you don't let more ons run your business, you let them invest, not "INJECT" themselves too deeply into it. let the guy recycle steel & seek doctors (he was sick, IMO), not manage electronics, for heaven's sake!
Or, hiring Fawad's "old friend" who seems to have lost his skills dueto disease or something (after angrily ejecting from AeroFlex), who caased Amplitech spend >$10Grands on USELESS "Mysis" software, & hiring a bunch of other OLD DUDES from Miteq whose primetime knowledge became OBSOLETE & energy collapsed dueto bad diets/uncaring for health - stuff like that totally woke me up from "Confidence Coma", stuff that makes you realize this "company's mindstate is forever"
There's no cure. I mean, can you cure Kyphosis (a hammer doesn't count as cure).
Likewise can you cure author of this post from wasting time on ranting online? Actually YES ! - rightnow I stop posting, when Internet goes down dueto meteorite strike.
