now, the trick is going to be, will I remember that #TQSL is available on #Linux in 3 years when I renew again? 😂

whaaaat?

when did TQSL from ARRL become available on Linux?

did I miss this last time I had to renew my certificate? 😮

TQSL Download

The American Radio Relay League (ARRL) is the national association for amateur radio, connecting hams around the U.S. with news, information and resources.

Tried to renew my #LoTW certificate yesterday. Couldn't renew directly because I wasn't on the same computer that my certificate was originally created. Tried requesting the automated renewal but #TQSL threw an error. Ended up emailing my TQ5 file to #ARRL but haven't received a response. I think that was supposed to be an automated process as well??
@BenDoubleU I'm a big proponent of #encryption, but needing to maintain cryptographic keys just to submit a #hamradio log is a bit absurd, especially when you consider the lack of security around the rest of #LOTW.
I've been through the pain of requesting new keys after #tqsl decided that my exported keys weren't valid on my new machine for some reason.
Now I keep my keys on my #Wavelog server and everything gets logged to there, then automatically synced to LOTW and #QRZ. Wavelog also does a great job tracking award progress, too, although QRZ has become my authoritative "source of truth" for awards.
