Tom; Here what's listed as choices on the "OPT IN/OUT" page of the new ARRL website profile pages: ARES E-Letter ARRL Board meeting agendas and minutes ARRL Club News - (monthly notification) ARRL Contest Update (bi-weekly contest newsletter) ARRL Current - (monthly digital notification) ARRL Instructor/Teacher E-Letter (Radio Waves) ARRL Legislative Update ARRL Letter Division and Section News IARU E-Letter (International Amateur Radio Union) Publication Announcements and Special Offers W1AW - DX W1AW - General/Special W1AW - Propagation W1AW - Satellite I don't see anything related to opting in to automatic FCC renewals listed. Am I missing something somewhere? 73; Mike W7VO

Mike,
I believe I remember that you have to select the license renew request in your webpage account profile. No check mark, no license renewal notice.

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!
