[RTTY] LOTW

[William D.Storer]

Tim,

I've talked with several dx stations recently that said they were in the 
process of applying to LOTW. It's like anything new, you can't gauge a 
programs success in one year period. The words getting out about LOTW, but 
it's hard to get people away from the regular card method that's been in 
place for years. With all the computer logging taking place it makes it much 
easier to get the data processed so I feel confident that it will be a good 
confirmation tool for qso's in time. I'm sure eqsl.cc was slow when it first 
became available.

Just my thoughts.
