Hi Jim,
Just played with LOTW for the first time. I like it!

You have to get a text editor (there's one built in to LOGic
i.e. tools->edit a text file) and look at your adif file output at
line 21. Maybe the date is wrong? Or something else in the record is
corrupt?
When I uploaded my log, LOTW generated a list of problem callsigns and
reported that it skipped those but did proceed to accept the rest.

Try again.
Let us know how it goes.
