Hi Gordon,

If  USSTRATCOM will charge for keps all Commercial and
Scientific satellite users including the Amateur Satellite user
than we will forced to pay for that keps and no way to do 
different but it is unlikely and as far I remember it never happen
before.

Actually all keps for Commercial and Scientific satellites as
well the Amateur Satellites are available for free on internet
from CelesTrack
