[RTTY] WPX on LOTW

[Al Kozakiewicz]

>From the LoTW homepage:

Jul 2, 2012: WPX -- LoTW is now displaying a WPX Award table in each user account under the tab Awards.  Over the next couple of days users will see the numbers in the tables go up as the system continues to process log data that is already in the system.  Some users already see the fully populated prefix tables.  Watch the news here and we will announce when the data processing is complete.

In looking at my wpx listing, it appears it is only selecting records that were
Only recently confirmed.  I could not find a setting for allowable date range,
So I have to assume its hard coded (and wrong).
