Thanks for the update!

PETITION FOR RULEMAKING OF IRIDIUM COMMUNICATIONS INC. I. INTRODUCTION. Iridium Communications Inc. (“Iridium”), by this Petition for Rulemaking (“Petition”),1 requests that the Commission take steps to optimize the efficiency of the band plan for the 1610- 1626.5 MHz band (the “1.6 GHz band”). Iridium is a longstanding steward of a portion of the 1.6 GHz band and a mobile-satellite service (“MSS”) success story having launched two generations of non-geostationary satellite orbit (“NGSO”) constellations. These current in-orbit satellites are capable of operating from 1616-1626.5 MHz, yet Iridium’s authorization is limited to 7.775 megahertz of dedicated 1.6 GHz band spectrum (1618.725-1626.5 MHz) for its uplinks and downlinks.2 Iridium nonetheless provides a wide range of global services—including aviation and maritime safety, disaster and emergency response, next-generation offerings like direct-to-device (“D2D”), Internet of Things (“IoT”) services, and critical communications for the U.S. Government to support national defense. Iridium faces fierce MSS competition that continues to grow, as does its customers’ demand for more and better services. To meet the moment, Iridium needs additional spectrum

2 Grant of this Petition would facilitate more intensive and efficient use of the 1.6 GHz band, allowing Iridium to further innovate and expand its service offerings. Specifically, the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) should revise the 1.6 GHz “Big LEO” band plan and accompanying rules to allow Iridium’s in-orbit MSS system to operate down to 1616 MHz, for a total of 10.5 megahertz (1616-1626.5 MHz), and permit Iridium’s future third-generation system to use this same spectrum plus share an additional 6 megahertz of the 1.6 GHz band (1610-1616 MHz) with Globalstar, Inc.’s (“Globalstar”) MSS system. Following the rulemaking, the Commission should modify Iridium’s satellite authorizations pursuant to Section 316 of the Communications Act,3 as well as those of Globalstar.4 Iridium can make immediate use of the additional spectrum with its in-orbit second-generation system, which already includes these spectrum capabilities down to 1616 MHz. Further, Iridium’s planned third-generation system would include innovations to enable shared use of spectrum between 1610 and 1616 MHz. Optimizing the 1.6 GHz band through the proposed rule changes will promote competition, energize U.S. space leadership, and serve the public interest. II. UPDATING THE 1.6 GHZ BAND PLAN WOULD ALLOW IRIDIUM TO MAKE IMMEDIATE AND MORE EFFICIENT USE OF 1.6 GHZ SPECTRUM. In the past, the Commission has used rulemakings to change the Big LEO band plan “to promote spectral efficiency while ensuring that operators in the Big LEO bands can provide service without causing or experiencing harmful interference,”5 as well as to establish “an equitable

To claim AST won’t be competitive is a stretch. I don’t think you’ve done any research on why AST’s technology is competitive.

There were complaints for BW3 brightness but none for BB1, and they’re coordinating with the NSF to mitigate the risk.

They’re launching the constellation in 2026. Already signed deals with ATT, VZ, Vodafone, Rakuten, STC and Bell.

TMobile, Optus, Telstra, Rogers, OneNZ, KDDI, Entel Peru, Entel Chile, Kyivstar, and O2 let the biggest Trojan Horse in the world into their mobile networks. AST SpaceMobile is the only true non-competitive D2D partner to MNOs.

Screenshot from Xitter stating: $ASTS: Elon hinted at competing with MNOs back in September. And what did he do a month later? Double down with a “Starlink Mobile” trademark filing. If MNOs weren’t aware of Starlink’s competitive threat then, they should be now.

Some VERY good sleuthing by Steve on Xitter as part of the #SpaceMob group. A Trademark filing for "Starlink Mobile" would make perfect sense if one thought they might compete directly with existing MNO's. That is why $ASTS @ast-science.com will be the partner of choice for most MNO's.

TMobile also filed objections to AST's SCS application. They are making silly claims about $ASTS not providing sufficient proof they will not cause interference. This is just a stall tactic and seems unlikely to work IMO. CatSE did a funny version on Xitter mocking them.

All this short interest and we’re at $55 with imminent news catalysts. Shorts are just lumps of coal at this point.

The shorts have no idea what they're messing with

Short interest in $ASTS jumped 2.2M shares to 41.7M.

The mid September short position for $ASTS has increased by 2.2M shares as of mid September. Idiots selling AST short on the news of SpaceX buying 50Mhz of spectrum for $19B. They got their asses handed to them this week.

The sellers haven’t done any work at all 🤪 just see SpaceX and panic.

Nice work!

Daily chart of $ASTS showing oversold conditions.

Many of you who follow me do so for $ASTS coverage. I cannot emphasize enough how great a sale you are getting right now. Oversold on the daily chart and trading well below the bottom of the Bollinger Band. I'm scrounging to buy more and calls! Run the #'s on SpaceX spectrum and you will see why.

Yesterday evening the FCC granted @ast-science.com permission to launch 20 additional satellites! $ASTS I’m too lazy to write up all the details so here is a great summary from our favorite Swedish 🐈. x.com/catse___apex...

Great update. The shorts have no idea what they're messing with.

bi-monthly short position in $ASTS. Current position is 45M shares, down from 46.7M shares earlier in June 2025.

The bi-monthly short position for $ASTS has been published. As of the end of June the shorts covered ~1.7M shares. Given the run up in price this is not very much. These official numbers are very different from the Markit daily numbers.

AST continues to secure its technical moat with these patents 🔥

$ASTS @AST_SpaceMobile @AbelAvellan 🚨 Another day another US patent: 🚨 "Dynamic Triangulation Of Active User Equipment Location Via Satellite Radio Access Technology (RAT)" US 12,352,877 B1 Inventors: Yu & Fawzi Date published: 2025-07-08

A new @ast-science.com $ASTS patent was reported today by user Theodorus. Replacing GPS signals for positioning using Satellite RAN is likely to be a very good thing for high quality positioning data. It may also reduce power consumption in cellphones which is always a nice feature.

Great news! This sets up AST and Vodafone as a D2D monopoly in Europe in both commercial and government sides of the industry.
