[Dxbase] LOTW query?

Sat Apr 2 11:45:24 EDT 2011

When it says back up your QSO log first, they mean it. I check "opr. 
call," "Mixed Mode," and "Mixed Band," too. Not sure why the last two. 
Someone told me to.
I am finding that there is a long wait for QSOs to upload the last few 
days, at least for me. You can tell when it has happened by checking 
QSOs on your LOTW page. When the file has been accepted by LOTW, you 
will the QSOs there.
Don't throw away your cheat sheet if you're over 60.
