This is getting interesting.... Why doesn't my profile page have the ability to opt in or out for "Notification of license expiration" , as Dr. Boehner's does? I showed you all a copy of what's on my Profile page for OPT IN/OUT. There is something I'm not seeing, somewhere..... I looked at all the profile setting pages, and there is nothing I can easily find to turn on that particular "feature". 73; MikeW7VO On 07/04/2022 5:29 PM James F.

I do not remember an ARRL notification in 2020, but I probably did not give them enough time. I had my calendar set for 90 days prior to expiration and renewed via FCC ULS on the first day I could do so. Since the upgrade, there is not a direct link to your profile page under your login. I miss that link. It is a bit more difficult to have members navigate to their opt in/opt out page. ‘73 de Jim N2ZZ Director – Roanoke Division Representing ARRL members in North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia and West Virginia ARRL – the national association for Amateur Radio Facebook Page: ARRL Roanoke Division Website: www.arrl-roanoke.org From: arrl-odv <arrl-odv-bounces@reflector.arrl.org> On Behalf Of Michael RitzSent: Monday, July 4, 2022 8:21 PMTo: w3tom@verizon.net; arrl-odv@reflector.arrl.orgSubject: [arrl-odv:33842] Re: ARRL FCC license renewal notices?

A member accidently let his amateur license lapse, and was wondering why the FCC didn't send him a renewal notice before it expired. I explained that one to him, (the "Paperwork Reduction Act"), then he wondered why he also didn't get a renewal notice from ARRL. I couldn't explain that one. Here's what he sent me: Incidentally, I just did a google search, (which brings up another issue...) where ARRL says on their website that expiration notices are a "benefit of membership"... see http://www.arrl.org/expiration-notices It doesn't specify email or snail mail, but the wording suggests snail mail. If that's no longer the case, that page needs to be updated. I may have received one but I don't think I did. Is this something that Personify broke, or is this an anomaly? I haven't had any other questions about it, but was wondering. Anybody else on ODV had recent issues with this? Thanks! 73; Mike W7VO
