I've given a lot of thought to this over the years, and I would be a lot more active if we had a new HEO up there, and I also think it would boost Amsat memberships worldwide.
BUT...
To have a new HEO is going to take a worldwide effort, just like it was with all the past HEO's. No one single Amsat organization has the resources to do it on its own, and we're not going to be able to work internationally again on a new HEO until something is done about ITAR.
