[UK-CONTEST] Club calls and SCCs in LotW?

[cris at gm4fam.plus.com]

Hi Ian

Yes, Page 1 of the licence plus copy of a Utility bill / driving licence
verifying the applicant's address - that will suffice.

But before doing that I recommend sending an e-mail to ARRL telling them
what you would like to do AND enclose a paper copy of that e-mail with the
above documentation.

So, to start with, try sending an e-mail to Bill Moore NC1L at ARRL HQ; he
has always been very helpful in dealing with this and other ARRL matters -
DXCC at ARRL.ORG will do the trick; he will usually pass same e-mail to a
colleague who will respond in quick time.  This in turn gives you a name
and call to whom you can send the correspondence.

Its a seamless exercise but as with any dealings with any large
organisation a named person with whom to conduct correspondence smooths
the path.

account that he may wish to set up.

other form of ID? This is the part that the ARRL website doesn't make
clear.

club, both... or what?
