You're doing better than me!
Of the 214 countries I've worked since moving to this Qth 6 years ago
I've only had about a 33% return, with CW op's being the worst :0)

Hi All,

Some individuals apparently like to get a large volume QSL's "direct"
and
expect dollars, so how keen will these people be to switch over to LOTW?
Maybe if there is a credit card details field in the Trusted QSL
cerficate
so that they can still extract the dollars ;-) I'm sure there will be
all
sorts of excuses why people can't use LOTW.. no internet etc, postal
workers stealing the paperwork on it's way to the ARRL.. I try to get
the
DXCC awards and all that, but my confirmed countries is 40% of my worked
countries after (10 years). I don't mind spending 20 seconds filling out
a
QSL card, but I can't be bothered spending 20 minutes each week in the
post
office trying to sort out stamps, airmail stickers and IRC's. If those
people who can't qsl via the buro do us all a favour and adopt LOTW,
that
would be great.
