    ARRL Systems Service Disruption

07/09/2024

*Updated 07/09/2024*

As previously reported, ARRL® Logbook of The World® (LoTW®) returned to 
service on Monday, July 1, 2024. As anticipated, there was a significant 
rise in use to catch up on processing logs following the outage. It took 
4 days for normal processing times to return.

The ARRL Radiosport Department has resumed processing applications for 
most awards. The systems for Worked All States (WAS), VUCC, and issuing 
credits for CQ WAZ and CQ WPX awards have returned to service. These 
award applications are being processed on a “first in/first out” basis.

WAS applications submitted through July 4 and VUCC applications 
submitted through July 1 have been processed. CQ awards applications are 
processed by CQ and not ARRL.

While we can process these ARRL awards and update records, the ability 
to print and deliver certificates, endorsements, and other material has 
not yet returned.

The online DXCC® application is unavailable at this time and DXCC awards 
are not able to be processed. Work continues to return the DXCC systems 
to service. All DXCC data is secure.
