[RTTY] LOTW Users List

[Inbody, Don]

Robert Chalmas HB9BZA maintains an LOTW Users List.  As ARRL has not decided to provide this data, as they believe it not useful, Robert has done a very good job.  This list is used by DX Clusters.  Terry AB5K introduced use of this database to let cluster users know whether the station spotted is a known LOTW user.  Some programs, including the DXLab Suite programs, use this list in a database format to identify known LOTW users.

 

You can help update this list and I urge you to do so.

 

Go to http://www.hb9bza.net/lotw/index.html to learn how you can help.  Basically, you download your lotwreport.adi from the LOTW website and email it to Robert at lotw-list at hb9bza.net

 

As of 5 March, there were 19,758 callsigns known to be using LOTW with 314 current countries represented.  ARRL reports that 29,766 certificates (different callsigns) are registered.  So, there are more to find out there.

 

Countries/entities not currently known to be using LOTW are:

Do you have any of these entities confirmed by LOTW?  If so, Robert would like to know.
