The AA5VU.log file was accepted by the DL-DX-RTTY robot and also uploaded to
LoTW using the Mac version of the ARRL TQSL software.
I like the DL-DX-RTTY contest because it is not too long and the logging
requirements are compatible with the standard Mac OSX cocoaModem contest
template for logging. The contest was a part time effort when I could spare
some time.
Happiness was when YZ1DZ (SERBIA AND MONTENEGRO) responded to my CQ for a
new RTTY country for me. I need the YU = Yugoslavia for RTTY DXCC but
question if a YZ1 will count for the brand new country.

The S&P contest mode is okay but you need to be in CQ mode to pick up
multipliers or work new countries. As I recall the old contest rule says
something like rare stations and multipliers usually do not call CQ - they
seem to work in the S&P mode. Happiness was having a new one respond to my
CQ. My score is not that great but I had fun and that's what really counts.
