It depends. If it is a black box and you interface to it as an open
protocol, you don't have proprietary data - which is the ITAR trigger. If
you have to enter into NDAs, etc., you will need to establish an ITAR
project within the larger ITAR-free organization. Frankly, I don't see that
it will often be worthwhile to do this, simply because the administrative
overhead is so much higher. However if it is very technically desirable,
establishing a compartmentalised project is eminently possible.

We did this for Phase 4. You remember that Bob McGwier and Michelle were
major technical leads on Phase 4, and the original concepts of the project
included things that I suggested to Rich Hambly in 2007. I remained a
contributor to the project. The amateur part of satellite was an ITAR
compartmentalized project, the ground station was Open Source.  My
understanding is that FEMA got screwed over by a vendor, and then our
friend the FEMA director left during and administration change or
something, and we never got the satellite.

Development of Phase 4 continues at ORI, with both sides Open Source. ORI
is an AMSAT member organization. This is our band-aid for AMSAT being
uncomfortable with Open Source and not yet having an appropriate policy.

2) It may force AMSAT to abandon long-standing relationships (whatever's in
> those NDAs), which could greatly affect ongoing projects.
>

Keep the old stuff as ITAR compartmentalized until it's over, if that
matters. The fact is we have not been launching all that much and it is
hard to see from here where are those critical partnerships would be.

This is not entirely an either-or situation. Nobody is asking AMSAT to jump
off a cliff.

Thanks

Bruce

I use two:

AmsatDroid Free
ISS Detector Pro

The AmsatDroidFree is free, but the satellites are listed in order by age
and it's a little cumbersome to find the one you want. You can look at only
one sat at a time and the prediction only goes out 24 hours ahead.  But,
it's free.

ISS Detector Pro. The base version only tracks the ISS, so you need to pay
a little bit for the add-ons, which include all the ham sats.  You can
customize a list of your favorite sats and see which ones are coming, in
date/time order.  Very nice app.

Perhaps Clint or Mike (since he made the same allegation in the past
against Patrick) can provide irrefutable proof that both were behind that

Anyone with the capacity to assemble a 3 element Yagi properly should be
able to easily connect the dots between posts on other platforms and those

/Joseph; you wax on about intellectual property and symbiotic
relationships etc, and then ask /
//"How does AMSAT benefit b//y pursuing an open source policy?" May I
ask, how in the past 10 years has AMSAT benefited by running the
proprietary system they are running now? You would think the AMSAT bank
accounts would be overflowing and invitations for HEO launches would be
so many we would be turning them down? Please answer this before
belittling the proposition. / On Wed, Jul 15, 2020 at 7:21 AM Joseph

I switched to ISS Detector a few years ago and rarely use anything else.
Beware that the pass calculation is done in the cloud, so if you are going
off grid you may want to get another app.
