Hi Domenico
I discuss the dismantling of my and 5 other VE satellite amateur station in the past 3 weeks (Incluging Clare VE3NPC that i meet last week in Ottawa).
They all come the the same conclusion NO HEO no more AMSAT NA members, and no more sustainable amateur satellite mass operators.
73 and take care.

Hi Luc, VE2DWE
Here in Italy many satellite users have alrady dismantled their satellite antennas after AO40 died and leaved off to pay their AMSAT membership.
Because of the long waiting my AO40 antenna that you can see in QRZ.com is becoming rusty and I am considering to replace it with a 5 meter dish for 1296 MHz EME
I come the the same conclusion NO HEO no more AMSAT-NA members, and no more sustainable amateur satellite mass operators.
BTW I pull for P3-E or a GTO satellite from AMSAT-DL as you can read in the official following document:
