... You have to RTFM very carefully…..

Well the jury is still out on the Logbook of The World Stuff….

It took a bunch of tries and the final result was brought about by me loading the help file on my latop so I would not have to “TAB” between screens but I finally did it and Yes all the problems were caused by Yours Truly…

However in my defense …. The setup and instructions are almost at the “Secret Squrill ” level so…. its almost like they don’t really want you to succeed in your Quest…. The only thing I can find wrong with LoTW is that it needs someone to take the instructions away from the engineer that wrote them and translate them into a user friendly language…
The system works and it works great…. I uploaded my log of almost 1500 Q’s which worked out to be 139 unconfirmed DXCC entities and about 20 minutes later I had a confirmed list of 92 DXCC in the log…
So its easier than it seems to get set up but the directions could use more english in there…. Although you do have to pay attention and not get distracted it is possiable to do this…
At the end of the day after almost 365 days of calling no make that screaming CQ DX I can officially say that I have 92 DXCC entities confirmed (out of 139 claimed ) so its seems to me that the system does work and works fairly quickly…
