OT: VP6DX es LOTW
Locked
 
|
I saw mention of LOTW entries being uploaded for folks that had
donated to the cause. An interesting idea. I saw the direct QSL information, but nothing else about LOTW. Has anyone gotten the impression that they will be uploading logs to LOTW? -- Dave Wilburn K4DGW K2/100 - S/N 5982 _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [hidden email] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

These contacts were with over 900 stations whose owners made financial contributions of at least five US dollars to the expedition through Feb 24. "The submission has been accepted and processed by the robot, and these contacts are ready for matching by the donors." Obviously there is an error in the dates of that announcement. I expect that they will upload more logs now that the DXpedition is over.

I sent them $10 a week or so ago and requested the special "direct" QSL card and was expecting it in maybe 3 months or so. Didn't think they were involved with LOTW. Then, much to my surprise, when I did my routine weekly check of LOTW there were 7 confirmations from VP6DX! Sure made my day. ...

I have been watching the LOTW the past week and NO entries for VP6DX
have showed up yet. There should be three, all from the ARRL DX test. No, I haven't submitted a QSl request but apparently I will need to do so. Awaiting K3 S/N xxxx !!

Hi Allan --
We do not send a LOTW entry unless a station asks for a QSL, using the on-line QSL request form. In other words, the entire VP6DX log is not being dumped into LOTW. In recognition of the financial help provided by donors, LOTW entries are being uploaded now for those who have requested QSLs and have made a donation toward the costs of the DXpedition. Some time much later (9-12 months) LOTW entries will be submitted for QSL requests for non-donors. And, of course, there will be a certain number of QSOs that were mis-logged or didn't actually occur. Each of those will require manual research before making a final decision... so that will delay LOTW entries for those specific contacts. 73, -- Eric K3NA VP6DX co-leader on 08 Feb 29 Fri 00:39 Allan Taylor said the following: > I have been watching the LOTW the past week and NO entries for VP6DX > have showed up > yet.

Hi Eric,
Thanks for a really great DXpidition! You guys did an awsome job! Will there be any effort to load to LOTW those of us who are "old fashioned", and sent a QSL with donation (greater than $5) via mail? Just wondering.

Yes, LOTW will be uploaded for QSLs with donations received in the
mail. But this will take longer. DL6LAU got home to find several thousand envelopes in the basement... Please use the on-line form to request the QSL. Donations can be sent by mail, if desired, but a great deal of time can be saved if you enter your QSL request electronically. Otherwise, someone else (a volunteer) will have to do the data entry using the information off your card. on 08 Mar 07 Fri 10:58 ORIN G.
