[SixClub] ARRL/ LOTW & VUCC / K1ZZ

[Gene - W5DQ]

Yeah, I know IOTA isn't related to ARRL and Newinton has a bottom line. I simply would like to see them share some info. I mean QSL data isn't national security stuff :) 

Oh well guess I'll just fire up 'The Green Monster' and work some 6M grids :)

Gene,

 IOTA is NOT a product of the ARRL, as such they are " NEVER ' going to do 
this ! the ARRL is a BUSINESS !  regardless, of what they tell you.

                                                                             
               Joey
