I have 133,000 QSO records in DXbase. Uploading these to LoTW resulted in
10,357 QSLs from 223 different DXCC countries. All of these QSO records
(plus thousands more from years prior to 1990 on paper that I didn't bother
to upload to LoTW) resulted in 7,580 EQSL matches from 127 different
countries. If LoTW is a "colossal failure", then EQSL is... ?
