Thanks for showing that there needs to be change. How can AMSAT flourish when you are only having 2-3 meetings a year. Technology changes more often than that. This pattern illustrates that there is a need for more meetings of Directors that direct Officers. The local school PTA meets more often than this. Just because something happened a particular way in the past does NOT mean it was correct or a good practice. AMSAT seriously needs new guidance, thoughts and ideas. I have read where many members are frustrated that there is a lack of leadership. This can be changed by voting for new Directors and not re-electing incumbents who have been comfortable to have just a couple of meetings a year and rubber stamps whatever business may come before them. Members should consider that when casting a vote. If members want to continue to coast, that is their right but the coasting is downhill and eventually you can’t coast any further and the ride is over.
