I'm not sure what you want to do....
First off, you CAN NOT delete previously uploaded qso in LoTW. If they had been EXACT 
dupes, they would have been overwritten, but the page you sent me showed slightly 
different frequencies...LoTW assumes you worked him twice in the same minute on two 
different frequencies.
Nothing you can do. You can't delete any qso's from an existing LoTW log.
At least not now.....
Now if those qso's are dupes in your DXBase log book....then maybe Joe's 'dupe report' can 
help.
How many are there?
