I want to get AG status. Will I be able to upload 2 files, one for each side of wallet card? Call sign is on opposite side from signature and FCC seal. Did read another thread regarding wallet card, but it didn't address this question. I don't want to get hung up because of not being able to load 2 files. Tried searching but no luck. Thanks in advance for helping. KK6NCU

Additionally, I did read through the alternative methods. My 8.5"x11" license is not accessible at this time. I am not on LOTW. And do not want to wait months for a post card. Also, I'm limited to a 3.5"x2" display on a "smartphone" which makes this quite a chore to type. Thanks for understanding.

You can download an official copy (not the refernce copy, that is no good) of your licence from the FCC site using their ULS system. Here is an article that explains how: http://www.arrl.org/obtain-license-copy

Dave, thank you for replying. However, it does not answer my question. Respectfully, KK6NCU

You said you want AG status, but that your paper license is not accessible at this time, and you don't want to wait for the postcard.

I told you how you can download an official copy of your licence from the FCC site and use that to get AG, how is that not answering your question??

EDIT: I missed the part about uploading two files. No, you can only upload one file.

Thank you Dave for the answer. Using 2 mirrors @ right angle to each other I have 1 image with both sides of the wallet card. Then converted to B&W to reduce file size. After reviewing it to ascertain that all requested information is readable, I uploaded to the site for approval. There are 47 others ahead of mine. I do not need AG status for myself, I'm not chasing awards, I did it so that others who are can get credit for a good contact with me. My shack is primitive: no computer, software, scanner, printer, router, or high speed hard-line Internet. No commercial power and practically zero RFI/QRM. My logs are paper and pen. Using a small smartphone to copy good QSOs to logbook @ QRZ. I will confirm valid requests here, and hope that others will confirm my requests @QRZ. Happy and safe holidays to all! "Bret" KK6NCU
