Brian,
With all due respect to your comments, they are vague and subjective
and it is difficult to understand your dilemma. I noticed your website
is for the lunar X-prize. If you asked AMSAT to partner or somehow
become involved in that and was rejected, declined or ignored, then I
would believe that is not part of the organizations mission statement nor funding criteria.
If you have expertise in the production of satellites etc. and are
volunteering to bring "that to the table," then I can understand your
frustration and disappointment. In fact, I would wonder myself as to
why your expertise would not be utilized.

Judging from the amount of email I'm getting on the side, It does not
appear that I'm the only unhappy "horse" in the barn.

Hi,
I'm the president of PropelX (www.propelX.com
http://www.propelx.com/ ) and a member of AMSAT . I've come to the
conclusion over that last couple of months of asking questions and
offering to help on satellites (only to be jerked around), That the
only space that AMSAT is concerned about is their own . I will not be
renewing my membership.
