Thanks, I guess this kinda works
I am now getting

  gpg: Signature made Fri 02 Mar 2018 01:47:57 PM EST

The command is a bit tricky, originally i kept trying the command 
with only the keyring file name, which didnt work, it needed the 
path

while you are at it, also add a sha1 or a sh256 checksum, i think 
it will work better to verify the download
