Gretting to the list
I wish to thank everyone that took part in the discussion of ITAR as it pertains to Amateur Satellites. I have learned many things. I am sure others may have also. It is obvious that Amateur Radio before satellites had few if any ITAR problems. Now we have a very specific ITAR path to travel with any Amateur satellite.
I submit that the AMSAT BOD is doing a good job for the membership on this ITAR issue
There were a question or two dealing with security as it related to indiduals that were working on ITAR compontents or the AMSAT facility itself. At least it seemed to be a stretch for anyone to discuss that issue.
There are those like AMSAT that have a almost impossible time dealing with ITAR There are many more that have to do business or engineering work where talking to anyone becomes a probems I never had to concern myself with ITAR and that is the reason I needed to learn more about ITAR. I can assure all that there is another side to ITAR when the rules are not followed and that is the side I worked for on for 37 years. Think of all the testing that must take place when information is lost when the ITAR rules are not followed. No offense to any of my Amateur friends that have hard feeling because of ITAR, I understand. But like always there is always two side to any story.
Thanks again Gentlemen
