Rick, Sorry for slow response but had a lot going on here. I uploaded my log again this morning. As best I can remember I got the same response from LOTW only...
Despite having a steep learning curve (for me, at least), I think LoTW is great !! Today, I uploaded my log and wound up picking up DXCC on 20 meters. I had...
Toot that horn ! DXCC on any band is an achievement of note... DXCC 280 mixed makes you a bit more than a casual DXer. Now, those other DXCC entities...
On Wed, Jun 2, 2010 at 16:24, Paul. W. Copeland ... Anyone can get DXCC with a beam and/or an amp. Much more interesting to do it with low antennas and low...
Thanks guys. My good friend Ken W5KK is on the Honor Roll and he has NEVER owned an amp; I'm just trying to catch up to him. It was Ken who got me started...
... 10 meter DXCC and Phone DXCC ready to be sent in, most of which are LoTW contacts. Pardon me for a little "horn tooting", but t'aint bad for 100 watts...
Hello All; I am going through the trauma of moving my station to a new computer for the first time. I have a valid certificate good through next year but when...
Known problem with tQSL. The ARRL's certificate expired. Workaround is to reset your computer's clock back about one year, then save your p12 file. Once...
Easier to install K1MU's updated version of tQSL, which doesn't choke on the expired CA cert... http://www.rickmurphy.net/lotw/index.html It's not officially...
Gary; Thank you! That was pretty easy compared to some of the other problems I've had. In a weird way I feel a bit better that it wasn't something stupid I...
Just a comment and definitely my opinion, but it seems to me that many of the non-US hams could benefit in the number of Q's they make by being a LoTW user....
... I agree. I think you'll find that the complaint is similar to a lot of US hams: "LotW is too hard!" That's a really lame excuse for FCC-licensed hams;...
I have to agree that everyone should get on LoTW as it would be a huge savings to many stateside as well as DX stations. Getting started is a royal pain, but...

I get the qsl buro as part of the league membership, this includes sending and receiving. I pay 90 euro for printing 1000 cards, which makes the price of...
Since the ARRL is the "head Secretariat of the IARU" or whatever, there should be NO REASON why LOCAL AUTHENTICATION could not be set up for foreign hams....
I would use LOTW if it wasn't such a PIA to seup ....... Ruben Echevarria KA2HHB 070 Club#861 LONP#141 30MDG#1148 10-10#33308 I would use LOTW if it wasn't...
... Case in point ... :-) HQ's instructions could be better. AA6YQ put out a better set: http://www.dxlabsuite.com/dxlabwiki/SettingUpLotW -- Peter Laws |...
Hats off to AA6YQ for taking the time to write an instructional for LOTW. But you see what I mean? Too many hoops and hurdles. I'll read AA6YQ's instructional...
... As with everything, AA6YQ has done a great job with the instructions. Really, though, it's not that hard. HQ could make the directions simpler but hasn't...
I still shake my head in amusement at those who think setting up LoTW is difficult, or "too many hoops", lmao. It's no more difficult than setting up DXLab...
... OK, on a limb here, but ... I have a question, an innocuous question ... If in 50 years of being an 'Amateur Radio Operator' , I have never, a single time,...
... What's worse is that HQ has abandoned TQSL, which is what you use to sign your logs. K1MU, fortunately, has taken up the slack and has new builds that have...
... I can see contributing to the postage for a casual ham but IRCs are there for that (and are now available via USPS.com!!) For a DXpedition, I can see...
... The great thing with DXLab is that it's a suite of independent programs that act together. You only need to install the modules you want. There *is* a...
As a former QSL Manager in the 80's, I received quite a few IRCs and green stamps to help with postage. Believe me, it helped defray cost of printing QSLs...
