Hi everyone; This isn't strictly a contest question. I am a recent user of LoTW and eQSL and I am now moving some of my contacts and cards into the data bases. I worked and have the card

The server reformatted my message and the line came out as it was originally (a web link) and took out the bold letters, so I better be more explicit: check the address- it contains "rat/stew"! ...
Hi All--I am pulling my hair out! Only a few more days left and I can't find a program that supports the European PSK contest to put it in the correct Cabrillo format! And this is when I think I scor
Last weekend I was searching around for some DX while the Hawaii QSO contest was running. I had the cluster active so I could keep an eye on that while I was listening near the Hawaiian stations hop
At first I thought that the station might have mis-spotted himself to gain attention and more contacts, but when he started getting upset about the rude behavior I changed my mind! And, he was IDing

Hi all; That's Ok because it is for "NA" to work others (it is the ARRl's contest and even though I am a long-time member it is not for me to tell "them" how to run their contest!), but it was disapp

I also was looking forward to working ND and SD. I was able to find only 1 ND station on ssb, which I could 't work, 2 on CW, 1of which I worked. By pure chance I say a strange trace on the P3 just 2
I think I just found a new business--selling automatic Iders to contesters! Remember the ones we constructed to connect to 2m rigs back when repeaters were still not that common? The CW version would
I am about 47% confirmed on LoTW and much lower on eQSL (although not calculated, country list is shorter). DX (outside NA) confirms more often on LoTW, and, over all, digital QSOs are confirmed muc
That is interesting Yan. Maybe the false QSLs are to get a more rare call. Some report that they get lots of false calls--many complaints from the W-region! I have never received any false QSLs in
I use fldigi for digital, which uploads directly to RUMlog if it is open, and use MacLoggerDx for some contests. None of them upload directly to LoTW, but do so to eQSL. However, each produces adif f
I suggest that you do what I did. After 3 yrs of only getting 1 or 2 numbers a year, I noticed an offer to subscribe to the electronic version for half price or so. I jumped right on it and ever s
