ARRL SYSTEMS SERVICE DISRUPTION: DXCC ---> "The ARRL DXCC System has been
returned to service", the ARRL announced on 23 October, "and our staff is
again processing applications for credit toward DXCC awards. The queue
includes nearly 3,000 award applications submitted via Logbook of The World
(LoTW) accounts and mailed paper applications. We are processing the backlog
as quickly as possible, and will provide additional progress updates.
For now, the online DXCC application will remain offline. Any new award
applications we receive will experience significant delays as we work
through the backlog.
As previously reported, LoTW was returned to service on Monday, July 1,
2024. Since then, the system has been processing log uploads with little or
no processing delay.
We are grateful for your continued patience and understanding as we continue
to make progress on the few remaining services that have required additional
attention to bring back online".
