Fun times... I worked @Astro_Ayers during Field Day on 29 June 2025. My video of the contact (mine is at 1:48):

Then @JonnyKimUSA posted a video with contacts from the ISS side that day (mine is at 1:14):

@KH6WI_Ham_Radio This explains how to deal with expired LOTW certs...

[Patrick @WD9EWK]

@KH6WI_Ham_Radio I had to get new certs after a hard drive crash, before TQSL had the nice backup/restore functionality. All I was told to do is generate new cert requests from TQSL, and I'd get the new certs. And now TQSL backups go to at least 3 different locations...

@GridMasterHeat @AMSAT @GridChasers @GridMasterMap BTW, I was reminded several times that I am roving to a grid that I need myself (EN67). Just in case rovers are planning their next roves, here is my latest 488 grid map.
