Good afternoon.

We are planning to upgrade the operating system on the ARRL web site Monday evening beginning at 5 pm EDT (2100 UTC). The operation should take about 90 minutes during which the web site will be unavailable. There will be a “Down for Maintenance” message on the site during this time. ARRL e-mail and reflectors will not be affected by this. Access to the LoTW website will not be affected either.

Appropriate messages will be posted in the ARRL Letter (yesterday) and the news section of the ARRL web site, obviously leading up to the outage.
