As long as you can fish for QSLs with it I'm not interested.
Otherwise it's fine.

I have, waiting for me to do something about them, 1331 "eQSLs"
waiting in my inbox.  One of them is from a 4Z.  It's bold, so that
means the authenticity is guaranteed.  I really should confirm it
because I've never worked a 4Z or any other 4X station, so that would
be a real treat.

Fix that and I'll sign up.

BTW, on LOTW I'm about 50%.  All QSOs are post 1991 and the bulk of
them are post 2004 (with a scattered Qs between those two years - many
confirmed).  *My* fervent wish is that more folks On The Ultra-highs
would use LOTW!  I have VUCC on 50 MHz but I'd be much closer to 200
grids if more ops were on.
