together under one and raise prices 10x with only the same number of channels today....
So you are saying that a monthly subscription to the combined company would cost $129.50 a month for one radio and each additional radio under a family plan would cost $69.90 a month?

If you believe this you are out of your mind!!!!

Nobody is stupid enough to raise prices that much. Any idiot knows that they would lose all their customers and be out of business within 60 days, if not sooner if they tried something like that. I believe you need to seriously (Siriusly??) rethink your statement.
NO i said they "could" not that they "would"...

They both agreed at the time their licenses were issued that neither provider would try to acquire the other. That agreement is still in force unless they are now claiming it was just a joke.
WRONG

the agreement is that they would both get a spectrum to utilize that would not overlap. they actually agreed that within 7 years radio's would be built that could accept both services.

it said that no one company can have both spectrums. so in theory they could give back one spectrum fold the company together under one and raise prices 10x with only the same number of channels today....
