Their strong suit is designing hybridchips that do RF (radio frequency) processing as well as digital. I'veowned if for a couple of years now and have done quite
well.I have been on it with 5 figures since you told me last time.$100.00 ?Over 100x that.LET'S HOPEIT CONTINUES TO DO WELL.:-)===Yes, for sure. Of course they are vunerable to any down turn in theoverall market, and some think that could happen soon. The good newsis that Skyworks is a well established company with solid sales andearnings. That separates it from the frothy speculative stocks thathave made the news recently. A falling tide drops all boats but thesolid ones come back up. (Note clever interjection of on topicsubject matter.)That was what I saw before I jumped in. I just had too much on myplate to investigate the other one. ===Akoustis is tiny by comparison and a good deal riskier. They werebasically just a R&D operation until their recent contract. Supposedlythey have a superior RF filter technology however and the patents toback it up. 5G and IOT devices are going to need a lot of filterseventually.I
already
have a 5G play. I am looking for something else but notreally hard.It's going to be a while before they have mini towers placed in a grid everywhere, 100 yards from each other. ===True enough but Apple and other phone suppliers are selling 5G phonesright now. Apple is a big customer of Skyworks.
T-MOBILE HAS 5G IN FT MYERS, ESTERO, MIAMI AND A FEW OTHER PLACES.
HAVE YOU HSD A CHANCE TO CHECK IT OUT.
I THINK 5G IS WHERE CELL SERVICE WAS WHEN WE WERE CARRYING BAG
PHONES AROUND. THERE ARE BIG HOLES IN 4G STILL. I WAS IN CEDAR
KEY LAST WEEK WHERE CELLULAR WAS HORRIBLE AND T-MOBILE WI FI
HOTSPOT WAS PRACTICALLY NON EXISTANT.

That is one problem with T Mobile. The coverage is spotty. My wife
fell in love with Verison because their coverage was excellent
wherever she was going. These days it is really more important it is
where I am sitting than it is 40 miles out in the boonies. Neither of
us go anywhere these days. A decent base antenna on a Childrens Band
radio would reach anywhere I go 99% of the time.

T-mobile has been steadily expanding their coverage in recent years,
especially since their merger with Sprint. My wife has Verizon so
between the two of us we have coverage almost everywhere, and T-mobile
is much less expensive.


Around here, cell service is great in DC, Baltimore, Annapolis, and, if
you are on one of the main highways, pretty good along them, too, but
drive a few miles away from them and service is at best spotty with all
the carriers.


Get Verizon. The only place I've lost service is Shenandoah River State Park.
You'll never go there 'cause it's a campground.
