RTTY ops,
I need to update my post on ARRL Officials that do not use the LOTW. It
turns out that Central Director: George R. Isely, W9GIG does use the LOTW
and is listed in the HB9BZA LOTW user list. I made a typo when I searched
the HB9BZA list looking for W9GIG's call. Sorry George.
That bring the total ARRL officials using LOTW to 14 and the ones not using
LOTW to 25.
If anyone forwarded my original post to any other reflector, please forward
this correction as well. Thanks.
73 Terry - AB5K
