Tom, I think you simply need to register, which is free, and totally
painless. It just requires a user ID and password. Then, you have to
remember your ID and password for the site because it will ask you for it
from time to time, but not every time, or at least, that is the case for me.


Then, there is simply an edit box in which you put the call you are trying
to lookup. You can either type in the call and hit your enter button, and it
will look it up for you, or you can insert the call and then, tab down twice
and hit enter on the search button, andit will look up the call you want to
find. You will notice that when you insert the desired call in the edit box
and tab once, it puts you in a combo box. The default is to look up by the
callsign; however, you can also put in the edit box a person's name or a
person's address, and when you do that, you can tab once to get to the combo
box and then, arrow down once, and you will be able to look people up by
name or address, etc. I have typed in my city of Bowling Green, KY before
and then, tabbed down once and then arrowed down to search by name/address
and then tabbed one more time to the search, hit enter and it brings up all
of the hams in Bowling Green and the surrounding area.

That's my problem as well.

Very frustrating!

If I get the chance a little later, I'll have my sighted XYL take a look,
and see if she can help me figure out what might have changed.

The last time I looked up call signs (probably several weeks ago), it was
fine.

I can't figure it out either.
Windows 7 and window-eyes 9.
I can find an edit box, but when I put in a call and press search, nothing
seems to happen.

Subject: QRZ: Has something changed

Hello, everyone.

 

Has something with QRZ.com changed recently?

 

Tonight, I have been trying to look up several call signs, and every time I
attempt this, I seem to get stuck in some sort of a graphic google search
item, which does not allow me to get to the imformation I need.

 

I have found this to be true with both Internet Explorer 11, and Firefox.

 

I'm using Jaws 14 on this  Windows 7 computer.
