Hi Ed,

Please bare in mind that LoTW only suports ARRL Awards and no other for the
moment.
What about those guys who aren't interested in ARRL Awards?

The availability of a QSL card, for sure, but the availability "to the
masses" cheap (ie, the bureau), no.  I for one will be taking the following
stance:
>
> Direct QSLs with SASE, IRC, or Greenstamp will ALWAYS be answered, LOTW or
not.
> Direct QSLs without anything will be answered through bureau.
> Bureau QSLs will be answered through mid 2004 and then stopped.
> Logs will be uploaded into LOTW by the end of 2003.
>
> This applies to my home calls: K8EP and N1UR as well as my contest and
DXpedition calls: PJ2E, C6ARS, XX9TEP.
>
> Still want a card, no problem.  A card's just not as cheap as it used to
be but at least you can get award credit cheaper and quicker.
>
> This is how I will be respecting the QSL keepsake crowd but taking the
needed break from endless QSLing through the bureau.

> Comments welcome.
