OK I have got to ask what is the status?
Seems to be the best kept secret.

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.
