HI Bill
We are about 4 "ancient" HEO users over here who actually thinking selling
or keeping their satellite apparatus. What's keep us from
selling is "Moon bounce" the only one way to actually effectively recycled
our HEO stuff.
Our local Ham club is promoting a Moon bounce project (see the link below)
http://www.ve2cbs.qc.ca/VE2CBS/Nos_albums/Pages/Projet_%22Objectif_Lune%22.ht
ml
The amateur satellite business is now over for many of us as i have
predicted when AO-40 failed. LEO sats where not enough to sustained a
critical mass of satellite operator. We are now watching the slow and silent
demise of this part of our hobby and related organization.
Just hope you will find takers for your very nice rig.

I feel your pain Luc, however maybe just maybe we will see a HEO (hopefully
in my life time) eventually. Keeping my L/S stuff just in case.
