It might be more useful to point members to "View Your Profile" where
their division and section are both shown.

Marty has a good point.  A new member may not know a thing about how
they
fit in the overall ARRL organization (section and division), unless it's

made explicitly clear to them in their new member packet.  Even then,
prospective members wouldn't know, in case they wanted to contact a SM
or
Board member for information.

Some way to look up one's section or division via callsign search, zip
code, etc would be a beneficial tool, not considering the IT resources
needed to put those hooks in.

already know what Division you're in".  Same for the Secions, although
those are obvious from the names in most cases.  Didn't the old site
have a way to enter your ZIP code and return your Section and Division?
If so, is the same capability available on the new site, and can we put
a link to it on this contact page?
