The whole issue revolves around just a few members/posters who continually try and push the boundaries on what is a large list with respected and influential members all over the World. We all know who they are; the ones that immediately post a facetious reply to a newbie question, the ones that post one line,or worse still, one word answers that are ambiguous at best and downright rude at worst; the ones that take childish delight in trying to elicit the maximum controversy with seemingly innocuous postings.

There is a delete key on your keyboard; there are message filters built in to your e-mail client and if you really get offended then there is always the "un-subscribe" route.

For the most part we are all responsible adults involved in a fairly expensive hobby (note "hobby") that is both highly technical and to most people, quite complicated. If anyone feels that they can do a better job than anyone on the current Board then by all means file a motion of no confidence and see how many fully paid up members back you. Put up or shut up. That we have even had to come to an Acceptable Use Policy for this board should make certain members/posters question whether they should even be members.

Yo Clint bad comparison. Your house, my house(s) (grin), (insert names) house is private property with an expectation both in common law, law, and ethics of privacy. It is no where near the same as a public board which would not exist without the funds of members who pay dues. If the AMSAT board members were doing all the financial lifting for the board with no dues used then there might be some better comparison...but ... sorry the comparison is not even close.

[amsat-bb] Re: HO-68 Schedule Jan 17-24
I've often thought that it would make sense for us as a community to work toward the following: 1. Predictable mode changes based on simple parameters that extend forward in time. These would include 'every other week' (as below), or 'all even days', or 'when above 40 deg. N'. 2. Scripting 'hooks' for our tracking programs, whereby the mode of a satellite could be programmed by a scripting language such as Lua, Ruby, etc. Then, as as community we could write the scripts that automate the selection of modes based on #1 published by the satellite groups, and we'd have a slightly more automatic process: SatPC32 would, for instance, not automatically go to AO-27 when in auto mode unless it were in an operational mode. I recognize that this isn't going to work well with commissioning or with the testing mode that FO-29 is in right now, but it's worth a thought. 73, Bruce VE9QRP On Fri, Jan 15, 2010 at 7:22 AM, i8cvs wrote: > Hi Alan Kung, BA1DU > > Tank you very much for scheduling HO-68 only FM and Digital > Transponder for the full week from jan 17 to jan 24 > > Similarly for the next week from Jan 24 to Jan 31 we expect to > have only the Linear Transponder scheduled for the full week ! > > Tank you very much for your cooperation. > > 73" de > > i8CVS Domenico > > - Original Message - > From: "Alan Kung" > To: > Sent: Friday, January 15, 2010 5:56 AM > Subject: [amsat-bb] HO-68 Schedule Jan 17-24 > > >> 17 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 16:15...Turn On >> India,Middle East Asia, Europe, NA >> 17:00...Turn Off >> >> 17 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 23:25...Turn On >> South Africa,South America,Europe, >> NA,North Pole,North Asia >> 00:10...Turn Off >> >> 18 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 10:10...Turn On >> Australia,South Pole, New Zealand, East Asia, >> North Asia,Europe,North Pole,NA >> 10:55...Turn Off >> >> 18 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 12:20...Turn On >> Australia,South Asia,East Asia,North Asia >> 12:35...Turn Off >> >> 18 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 19:25...Turn On >> South Africa,Europe,NA,North Pole,North Asia >> 20:10...Turn Off >> >> 18 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 23:15...Turn On >> South America,NA,Europe,North Asia >> 24:00...Turn Off >> >> 19 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 11:40...Turn On >> South Pole, Australia,New Zealand,South Asia >> 11:56...Turn Off >> >> 19 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 13:51...Turn On >> Australia,South Asia,East Asia, North Asia >> 14:07...Turn Off >> >> 19 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 19:10...Turn On >> Africa,NA,North Asia >> 19:55...Turn Off >> >> 19 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 22:55...Turn On >> South America,North Africa,NA,North >> Pole,North Asia >> 23:40...Turn Off >> >> 20 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 11:25...Turn On >> South Pole,Australia, New Zealand,East Asia >> 11:48...Turn Off >> >> 20 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 13:34...Turn On >> Australia,South Asia,Est Asia, >> 13:50...Turn Off >> >> 20 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 15:55...Turn On >> East Africa,Middle East Asia,Europe,NA >> 16:20...Turn Off >> >> 20 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 17:10...Turn On >> Europe,NA,North Pole,North Asia,East Asia >> 17:55...Turn Off >> >> 21 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 11:05...Turn On >> South Pole,Australia, New Zealand >> 11:27...Turn Off >> >> 21 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 13:14...Turn On >> South Asia,East Asia,North Asia >> 13:29...Turn Off >> >> 21 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 18:45...Turn On >> South Africa,Europe,NA,North Pole,North Asia >> 19:30...Turn Off >> >> 22 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 00:10...Turn On >> South America,NA,North Pole, >> North Asia,East Asia >> 00:55...Turn Off >> >> 22 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 10:50...Turn On >> Oceania,South Asia,East Asia, >> North Asia,Europe,NA >> 11:35...Turn Off >> >> 22 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 13:30...Turn On >> Oceania,South Asia,Middle Asia, >> Europe,North Pole >> 14:15...Turn Off >> >> 22 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 16:40...Turn On >> Africa,Middle East Asia,Europe, >> NA,North Pole,North Asia >> 17:25...Turn Off >> >> 23 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 01:30...Turn On >> North Africa,Europe,North Pole,NA,North Asia, >> East Asia >> 02:15...Turn Off >> >> 23 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 02:23...Turn On >> North Asia, East Asia,South Asia,Oceania >> 02:39...Turn Off >> >> 23 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 03:20...Turn On >> South America,NA,North Asia,North Pole >> 03:09...Turn Off >> >> 23 Jan. 2010 >> HO-68 FM and Digital Transponder >> 23:35...Turn On >> South America,NA,Europe,North Pole, >> North Asia,East Asia >> 00:20..

And you have the choice to "open the door," enter, and be welcomed, or not be a member.

[amsat-bb] Re: It's NOT Censorship
I agree that if you don't like how things are being run: 1. leave, 2. vote out the BoD and vote in new, or 3. form your own organization. What I disagree with is the statement, "AMSAT is not 'censoring' anyone." Now, I'm no lawyer by any stretch, but I can read. Censoring is limiting speech based on what one finds objectionable. What is objectionable is completely subjective. "Abridging the freedom of speech" is how it is worded in the First Amendment. Abridging also means limiting. So, whether you call it censorship or abridging, what the AMSAT BoD has done is censorship. In the end, it's your $44. 73, Joel, W4JBB Clint Bradford wrote: >>> ...

Clint. I dont agree with much of that. I agree that the 1st amendment only applies to government at all levels (through the 14th)...but moderating the discussion to delete such things as "death threats" or whatever is far different then moderating it to put a particular group or sub group in a better light. I dont see any evidence of that yet, but the "guidelines" are so broad as to be meaningless. This is what I really disagree with. > > This messagegroup - and millions of others - is a private party.

AMSAT is a private group, but a group of members. If you are a member of AMSAT in my view short of threatening death or shouting fire when there is no fire...you pretty much get to lay ones two cents on the line. The AMSAT BOD is more or less acting, in my view, like our politicians in Washington ie once they are elected they are to busy to listen to the people who make up the group.

[amsat-bb] Re: FO-29 schedule Jan, Feb.

Please do the reasonable uplink power. JE9PEL Mineo Wakita ___ Sent via amsat...@amsat.org. Opinions expressed are those of the author. Not an AMSAT-NA member?
