LoTW is absolutely great. What it needs right now is more 
participation, especially from DX operators.

Obtaining LoTW credentials is a rather involved process for a DX 
station -- but the LoTW is worth it. A few big M/M stations have 
already achieved 5-Band DXCC through LoTW, but it's a lot harder for us 
little guns.
