All,

I'm not really sure why others are replying to my emails mentioning callsign verification. From my Portal profile:

Call sign:

KB3VWG                                                       

Call sign verified Wed, 10 Apr 2024 19:07:09 +0000

That's not the issue I noted in my emails. Nonetheless, this has kinda proven to me that there's something going on at ARDC.

Again:

"I still haven't received a response about the 23 tickets that are pending and unassigned - which is seems are needed to do my normal annual DNS work (BTW - which seems will require MORE tickets)."

I'm not sure if my emailed are not being received or if there's other intent. Nonetheless I received a similar email about callsign verification off-reflector from Dave. I guess nobody is willing to answer - or they don't understand. I apologize if I'm not effectively communicating the issue.

I appreciate the time people took to reply. If AMPR.ORG is no longer available, I'll use another domain.

It would also be good to have your information correct with the FCC, or other government agency, that issues your license.

If we find any conflicting information, we are simply rejecting the application. At this time, we are not going to send out post cards or use other methods to verify addresses. Mainly due to the costs involved. The cost of sending out a simple post card, is typically over $2. There are hundreds of addresses needing verification.
