I went to the Dayton AMSAT forum expecting to
hear a presentation on new satellite plans.
However, the ISS folks hogged all the time
and the promised presentation was not made.
Very discouraging. I suggest in the future when there
is an agreed timetable, that it be strictly adhered to.
Some of us don't give a hoot about ISS. It should
have been turned over to ARRL a long time ago.
AMSAT funds are precious and should be saved for
satellite development. Just my opinion.
