Yes,

 

There is definitely a problem.  I used to get to ODV via the “Organizational Structure” route, but now have ODV as one of my favorites, so I use that to directly go to the ODV page:  http://www.arrl.org/odv  .  Going to “Organizational Structure” gives me the “not accessible” message also.

 

This may be a shift in “permissions”, so the ARRL HQ staff may be able to access these pages, but we, and regular members cannot.  Perhaps it is some change in a database within the website with unexpected consequences.

 

So, if this is a mystery to staff, they can just use a generic login with either member, SM, or ODV permissions and see what we are seeing.

 

FYI, I’m using Google Chrome.

Bob,

 

I tried to get to the ARRL About ARRL > Organizational Structure

 

And have not been able to get to it.

 

Here’s the result I’m getting:

I depend upon arrl.org to enable me to get information on many things,

one of which is Section contact information.  In addition to the many

times I can not reach arrl.org, recently I am now finding it difficult

to reach this URL:

 

http://www.arrl.org/members-only/Page/7317

 

That is the place I am being sent when clicking on the "ABOUT ARRL"

button.  From that point the options are many, one of which is "Organization

Structure."  When clicking on that selection, if I get that far, I often get

 

http://www.arrl.org/members-only/Page/98

 

This page is still eluding me. Are any of the readers of this message able to 

get a response from the "ABOUT ARRL" button and "General Information" button?

 

Additionally, I get these results whether or not I am logged on as a user,

or not.  Am I to understand from these page names that only members

are able to access these pages?  If so, why?

 

Thanks,

 

Bob -- W6RGG
