A "diversion" from the present thread...are there any ROVERS who have used/are using LoTW? As I understand...a "Separate" "Key" (or security certificate) is needed for EACH Location (Grid Square) fro
I haven't really used it for VHF rovering, but I have used it for HF rovering, AKA county hunting. I have done QSO parties from as many as 16 counties, which is a reasonable comparison to a rover in
No you don't need a separate certificate for each location. You do need to set up a separate location (QTH) for each place you operate. You also need a certificate for a rover call (AA1AA/R). After e
I think that you are making work for yourself. I don't rove but I do some mobile operation and upload my logs for each state. In my station set up in the TQSL program I make a separate entry for each
Received a note from Paul, AA4ZZ indicating that LOTW should match up a /r QSO record with a non /r one. I checked and he is correct, my bad. So if you upload from a /r certificate LOTW will match QS
I forgot to mention that I have linked K3IXD/m, and K3IXD/4 to K3IXD because, as K6EU said, you never know how the other station logged you and how they will QSL you. 73, Ed K3IXD I think that you ar
Completely missed requirements in the database design specification, would be the root-cause problem here. Sounds like time for Version 2. Nate _______________________________________________ VHFcont
I googled LoTW and Rovers because I'm just getting around to giving it a try. I found an exchange from this reflector back in summer of 2006. Any rovers currently submitting LOTW entries? I have a fe
Hi, Bruce. I've just started uploading stuff to LOTW. If it's any consolation, I'm also going off half cocked with my Rover logs! In fact, I just received my certificate for W0IS/R this morning. It's
Bruce, I have put my rover effort (a small one) onto LoTW. It was some work to put it in because LoTW requires a location for each operation to give proper credit for the contact. It doesn't have muc
BRUCE: Yes, you will need to get a separate certification for each grid and be careful to use the proper certificate when uploading logs. LoTW only "knows" your location information by the certificat
Actually, in looking at TQSL again, it *appears* you can edit the certificate and insert any location data you wish. So, once you get a signed certificate for W9FZ/R, it's very likely that's all you'
I just uploaded a bunch of logs for my modest rover efforts. After I received a certificate for W0IS (which requires the postcard), I then requested a certificate for W0IS/R. I signed that request wi
Thanks for all the tips! I'm glad to report that I've uploaded logs from two contests. UHF 2007 JUN VHF 2007 Those two logs mean 644 QSOs. So far, there are 43 matches which is like a 7% rate. Most Q
That is a pretty good QSL rate on VHF+ contacts in my experience. That will probably get better when the ARRL gets VUCC working for LoTW (hint HINT!). Entering all the operating locations is a bit of
So .. I spent a few hours mucking around with LOTW and my Jan log. It seems to have worked .. For the benefit of other rovers, here's what you gotta do .. 1. Get a certificate for your plain callsign
