Yes the equipment will change - even if they do not merge
 
That was a true statement but I don't think it sheds much light on the future.  WSI needed more viable satellite service so they contracted with the only viable alternative that didn't ALREADY have it's own weather service.   Now that alternative does have its own weather service and meanwhile, from what I can tell, WSI's onboard weather department is down to a skeleton crew until they were to surface from the previously scheduled Sirius changeover.
 
Personally I am in the dark about where this merger is going.  I assume cutting cost while at least maintaining the same customer base is the goal.    How does radio spectrum play here?
