Makes sense since Charlie is splitting the company into DISH and Echostar. He hopes this will add to shareholder value and easier to merge or acquire another company down the road

I have a question:
I confess that I don't fully understand this echostar/dishnetwork concept as being 2 different things.
Can someone explain, if the split, what is the difference between the 2 and the implications are?

Dish network the programming provider is being split off from Echostar the hardware maker and commercial satellite operator. Originally Posted by bgsmallwood
