Where does it says (in the current bylaws) that written objections must be received by AMSAT over they mail? 

This is the only condition I can find: "...unless written objection is received from at least ten percent of the Members..."

In 2021 an email objection doesn't count as "written"? What if I were to stop by the office (when we had one) and drop an objection?

This person didn't read existing bylaws, is intentionally trying to mislead
readers, or a combination of the two. The written requirement is not
something the current board implemented.

"Include the initiative on the ballot for the next directors like
president's club inserts in the past and let the membership vote after the
complete text of the proposed changes are included on the ballot insert. "

This statement demonstrates complete ignorance of the bylaws of the Radio
Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT.)

Timing of AMSAT's proposed bylaws changes is in advance of the upcoming 2021
election of Directors. The proposed changes clarify dates with regards to
candidate eligibility. Making these bylaws changes saves the corporation in
mailing costs and allows for electronic balloting (eliminating handling of
paper ballots.)
