That doesn't seem to make sense to me. Glenn's still a licensed amateur and the QRZ.com database is just a mirror of the one the FCC maintains, isn't it? I can't believe that QRZ.com would go in and remove him just because they deem him "controversial." As for the other guy, if he had his license revoked, that'd explain why he's not there.

  The reason glen is not listed on qrz is because of his obvious controversy
  which got him kicked from that data base. In fact that was an on going issue
  with him when he found out he was removed from the data base. Of course
  since every ham is listed there, to not be listed is embarrassing. If you
  want another call to look up like that, try w6nut. The previous owner of the
  infamous 147-435 repeater in la. That repeater has been sited for several
  violations. The sociopaths on that machine flaunt fcc rules everyday. It's
  to the point that the repeater owner doesn't want the machine to run when
  he's not listening. That still doesn't stop people from using the frequency
  though. They still pile up and jam each other on the input of the repeater.

  You guys got my curiosity up and I looked up N5DOG and K1MAN.  The DOG comes
  back to a guy named Joshua in California, but K1MAN isn't listed in QRZ!!!

  And Glenn's an even more than normally visible target, too, so I suspect =
  he knows that one misstep and he's gone.

    Kevin,

    I'm just cynical enough to think that Glenn is only being good=20
    because he doesn't dare not to.  Kind of like the kid that throws a=20
    rock through a window and then helps an old lady across the street to=20
    show that he's really not so bad after all.  I hope Glenn's act isn't=20
    fooling anyone.
