Subject: [Dxbase] LOTW submission filters.
Hello to all:
I am new to the DxBase reflector so I apologize if this has been covered before...
I would like to export an adif file for LOTW submission. I have never submitted a log to
LOTW, nor have I submitted anything to the ARRL for DXCC credit before. What "QSO
filters" (if any) should I have checked in the selection wizard dialog box? Please
advise.
Thanks and vy 73,

This one is easy....submit your WHOLE log, all of it.
This is taking into account that you have applied for a certificate for each callsign you
have held inside the states, and a separate certificate for any non stateside calls.
By uploading your whole log, the Awards module of LoTW will automagically determine all
the credits that can be applied to DXCC, and in the future, other awards offered by ARRL,
CQ, RSGB, and others.
You don't have to do the choosing, LoTW will do most of it for you.
Who knows, you could be top of the Honor Roll and not even know it. :-)
BTW, for all that are curious. At the DX dinner in Dayton, Joe Schroeder, W9JUV was the
top DXer with a confirmed total of 385.
