Hi, Does anyone at ARRL HQ have the authority to divulge the ARRL's long term plans for LoTW? Given the problems of late, it seems to me that a statement beyond the existing statement from the ARRL would calm down a lot of the chatter going on now in the various forums. 73's Dave http://www.nk7z.net |

In my estimation the future of LoTW is 'shaky'..... I just spent a couple of hours trying to help a fellow ham reinstall his LoTW. He was pulling his hair out and since I am a happy LoTW user I thought I could be of help. Boy was I wrong. I must have been very lucky when I got my LoTW up and running a year and a half ago because trying to reinstall it on his computer was an exercise in frustration. It took him over 3 weeks, 2 email requests and a phone call to finally get a new certificate. His initial email request for a new certificate never was answered. Next he didn't have any luck getting LoTW to recognize his new certificate - that's where I thought I could help him. No dice. The program will just not recognize his .tq6 file. Anyway this ARRL member for over 40 years is seriously wondering why he's a member if he can't use the services his membership fees are supporting. I hope they get this fixed soon - it's just NOT user friendly, particularly to those not computer geeks. 73, Jim NK3V |
