Either I am having a brain fart,  or there is substantial information now missing from the results of a callsign search on eHam.   No longer am I seeing full address,  expiration dates,  license class, etc.   How long has this been missing,  and why?

Do you mean QRZ.com?  I don't recall all that info ever being on eHAM.net.

We get the callbook info from QRZ.  Looks like something might have changed in our interface.

Thanks for heads up.

Looking into it.

Thanks, Mike.  Please post a followup when you get a reason for the change.... I do miss having some of the missing info readily available using the eHam callsign search window.

 Yesterday I did see the problem that you mentioned, now today it seems back to normal.

Thank you, N2MG - Mike !   Now see all the info back in place.

Just an issue with the way our connection to QRZ is set up.

Thanks for the heads up!

I too have noticed the lack of info (and even at times a known good call has no info). If I wait a while (maybe a day) it will be restored and sometimes info that was visible 1 day has disappeared the next. It's a bit frustrating but in the grand scheme of things I have bigger and better things to worry over, lol

The issue of an intermittent problem with the address data is news to me.

The recent problem, now fixed ( in theory) was not an intermittency, but a hard disconnect, so to speak.

Adding to the confusion is the fact that QRZ summarily pulls data 1) at the request of the ham in question, and 2)  worse (IMNSHO) apparently if a ham irritates QRZ enough.

Our use of the lookup at QRZ is worthwhile in that it not only supplies some personalized stuff from the ham’s QRZ profile, but tons of foreign info.

If you want FCC data, you can go to them directly of course.
