What I find very interest is that - a full week after IARU - not a  
SINGLE HQ station I worked has uploaded logs to LotW. Not even W1AW/5  
or NU1AW. You'd think that the IARU member societies headquarters  
would be able to figure this out.

I don't have DXCC on LotW yet. If some of those HQ stations would  
upload their logs, I'd be a lot closer.
