How about this: In place of complaining to me, and the entire list, why not
contact Wayne Mills, N7NG, directly with the problem. Since LOTW started I've
had a couple of e-mail exchanges with Wayne and he has been extraordinarily
helpful. I'll be willing to bet a dollar to a doughnut he will solve the
problem.

If the ARRL will cooperate and send me what I need, maybe I'll get
certified. They seem to have ignored my last three or four emails with the
TQ5 files. I just sent one today. Maybe I should send it every day until I
receive the post card.
Maybe one day I'll get on there again.
73 for now.
