All the recent news is making me want to buy more and more. If only I wasn't building my new home, I would have tens of millions of QBID shares. Most of my money is tied up in building this home that I am scraping to buy more shares.
If this does in fact dip into the 2's somehow, someway I will have to buy more, this is like a Kmart blue light special, you just can't pass up a good deal like this!

Disclaimer: I am a bozo at reading the charts.
But here goes, Looking at the 10min interval/14 day time period.
I see the MACD has just crossed over and the RSI is at 52%. It looks to me that we will be trading sideways a bit longer.
I played with the interval and time period and it looks to me that we are in a major holding pattern (consolodation phase) and have been for quite some time now.
Everyone is always looking for the bottom to buy in, well I think we are right there. Sure we could drop a bit more but I think we have pretty much reached rock bottom. I personally don't see us dropping into the 2's. I think we will hover in the 3's till we get some concrete news on carriage agreements, sub numbers, and/or GDGA hosts.
This is all just specualtion on my part, like I said I am a novice at reading charts.

I tend to agree with you Farley but i see the RSI at 52% and the MACD hasnt crossed over on my chart. but it does look like it is getting ready to move in that direction.
sidwys trading and consolidation is definately the order of the day.
A big PR will change that of course. but untill then i see the .003's as our base

This Barney Frank interview is pretty big news because it is an exclusive and it is the inauguration. Wonder if Chris Matthews or some of the other political reporters will be interested. I would not be suprised to start seeing Q Television reporters and hosts invited to weigh in on gay marriage and gay rights when those topics are discussed in the future. QBID is kicking sLOw GOs ass.

This is not that much of a fluff PR. Did LOGO or HERE! cover the inauguration? No. Did CBS, CNN, ABC, Fox, or any other network cover the gay side of the inauguration? No. The only network that would have thought about doing the gay angle would have been Comedy Centrals "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart."
Who knows. Depending how well they covered their story QTN could be releasing the rights for other networks to do a story about how QTN covered the gay angle. This PR is fine in my books. Matt

Q Television Network Gets Exclusive Insider's View of the Presidential Inauguration Congressman Barney Frank Hosts "Q on the Move" At the Inauguration for a Special Upcoming Episode PALM SPRINGS, Calif. - January 25th, 2005 - Q Television Network, (Pink Sheets: QBID), the television network for the gay and lesbian community, got an exclusive insider's view of the Presidential inauguration last Thursday, January 20, when Congressman Barney Frank (D-Mass) invited the network along as he attended some of the Inaugural events. "Q on the Move" host Nick Oram covered the inaugural proceedings for Q Television as Congressman Frank's special guest. Oram accompanied Congressman Frank to, among other places, the "Alternative Inaugural Ball," which raised money for non-incumbent Democratic candidates. In a speech to the attendees, Rep. Frank asserted that progressives must make the case that President Bush's policies are hurting minorities, gays and poor and working people. Oram also joined Rep. Frank at his interview with comedian and radio show host Al Franken. The exclusive footage will be broadcast in upcoming episodes of "Q on the Move," the network's travelogue of gay-friendly places, people and events. "We are grateful for Congressman Frank for giving us exclusive entrée to the places and events which are of particular interest to our viewers," said Frank Olsen, President and CEO of Q Television Network.

In addition to "Q on the Move," Q Television Network is currently the home for such original programming as "WOW! Women on Women," a lesbian talk show; "Q the Music," a video program, "In FoQus," a biography program, and "On Q Live," an interactive news program. Q Television can be found on RCN on Channel 255.

Universal Communication Systems, Inc. and Subsidiary AirWater Corporation, Together With Company Chairman Michael J. Zwebner, File an $18 Million Law Suit in United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida Against Internet Poster James Coughlin of San Diego, CA., Using Internet Alias "IrishJim44" Friday January 21, 4:00 pm ET Company Identifies Anonymous Poster and Additional Law Suits to Follow for Each of the "John Does 1-25"
MIAMI, FL--(MARKET WIRE)--Jan 21, 2005 -- Universal Communication Systems, Inc. (OTC BB:UCSY.OB - News), its wholly owned subsidiary AirWater Corporation, as well as company chairman Michael Zwebner announced today that they have filed suit against James Coughlin, Internet alias "IrishJim44", for claims totaling the amount of $18 million. The law suit has been filed in Federal Court in the Southern District of Florida. ADVERTISEMENT
In a statement issued today, Michael J. Zwebner said: "We have now filed suit against the first of a number of Internet posters who have conducted an unrelenting vicious and malicious evil on-line campaign against the companies and me for several years. We believe and allege, based on the actual posts, made that this defendant, as well as a number of co-conspirators, embarked on a deliberate and planned evil program of defamation, libel and the repeated publication of an unrelenting barrage of false information, false innuendoes and lies, all for personal illegal and immoral gain, and to cause maximum economic and commercial damage as well as severe emotional distress to myself. As we uncover more of the anonymous aliases and posters, we fully intend to take legal action against them."
In a further statement, Michael Zwebner said: "Defamation and the unrelenting libelous publication and knowingly posting and reposting of false and libelous information, is NOT protected under ANY US laws, even the First Amendment. This defendant, and a number of others, acted with extreme evil intent and malice, at all times hiding behind a supposedly anonymous Internet alias. We intend to aggressively pursue legal action, to uncover ALL the anonymous posters (aliases) who have engaged and continue to enact on-line defamation, and then take action and file applicable law suits against ALL these posters, however long it takes. We are very intent on actively pursuing this course of action, to bring these evil defendants to justice. Other Internet posters should seek legal advice BEFORE making wild, accusatory, false and defamatory statements on the Internet and elsewhere."
COMPANY RECEIVES MANY THOUSANDS OF PAGES OF DEFAMATORY AND ACCUSATORY DOCUMENTS VIA DISCOVERY FROM GOVERNMENT OFFICES.
The company also announced today that, following extensive discovery in recent litigation cases, the company is now privy to new information relating to illegal activities of a number of individuals posting on the Internet and making false accusatory reports to a number of Government Law Enforcement officials. In particular, the company, having issued a Public Records Request, Under Chapter 119, Fla. Stats, has received official copies of thousands of pages of emails, faxes and other communications all relating and revealing the large number of false complaints and filings made to a large number of both US and International Law Enforcement Agencies.
Mr. Zwebner stated: "It is totally incredible to uncover the unbelievable lengths and methods of deceit, lies and the issuances of false statements that these Internet posters / aliases went to, in their unrelenting attempts to cause severe economic damage to our companies and to myself as well as severe emotional distress. We are now aggressively dealing with them, one at a time."

You're probably right, but how does QBID justify no announcement of carriers when they promised this to us three weeks ago?
Sorry, I have no intention of bashing this company whatsoever, I'm just cynical and I'm looking to see if others can provide me with realistic answers that I can't seem to find elsewhere.

i must agree, the company is losing its credibility with all the delays and broken promises. the company doesnt report financials or anything. investors rely on the prs and the ceo's word. and if they cant rely on the ceo's word anymore, its going to be reflected in the pps.

As Ms. Rasanberger stated when QTN signed her, giving deadlines is a nail in the coffin in the media business.
We've heard it before that carriers don't want any info leaked about contracts till they are absolutely a done deal. Frank and company made a mistake giving dates that they'd have a carrier signed by.
See what happens? Deadlines are missed and people start disbelieving in the company. I doubt we'll hear anything more about carriers or deadlines of any sort till they are done.
Don't lose faith in QTN. All because they have missed the generalized deadlines does that make all the past of QTN pointless? They have released a lot of important information that makes them an extremely reputable company.
As far as comparing QTN to say AOL, SIRI, MSFT we've got nothing. Now compare QTN to other penny stocks. In those terms they might as well be MSFT. Matt

If you ask me I'd say there is a difference between a contract and an agreement. The gay games are a contract. It's locked. Carriers aren't for sure till there is a contract. Matt

why would they be finalizing carrier agreements for the 2006 games, when they dont even have carriers finalized now for the network for 2005? doesnt make alot of sense to have carriers for something that is 1 1/2 years away. right now qtv is only available in a few cities. not going to do any good till people will be able to actually watch qtv.

You're not in the same mindset as Frank. Why do networks battle over the contracts for Monday Night Football, college football, etc. for years to come? First it's obvious profit for the company since they'll be the only ones broadcasting the material. In QTN's case it also solidifies the fact that QTN will still be around several years from now. It establishes the future of QTN.
The gay games committee could have signed the rights to ESPN and probably brought more coverage to the games but would ESPN really bother broadcasting them; at least to the extent that the gay games want them broadcasted?
So they looked to a network they believed would. Why didn't they sign the rights to Here!? Why didnt they sign the rights to LOGO?
Besides all that. From the gay games perspective, you don't just think about who is going to broadcast your event a week ahead of time. How far ahead do they plan where the summer and winter olympics are held? Everything takes time. I'm in for the long haul. Matt
