[RTTY] LOTW

[Mark Perrin]

I am new to RTTY, just over a year now, but found that RTTY ops world wide 
are using LoTW.  I think I have 40-45 QSO's confirmed on LoTW for RTTY DXCC 
for which I do not have cards. - enabled me to get the DXCC very quickly on 
a combination of  QSL cards and LoTW credits.  So at least many world wide 
RTTY ops are using LoTW.
