[ADXA] LoTW VUCC Question

Hi Dennis,
Seems like some don't know how to properly setup a "Station Location" under TQSL.  You see this a lot with Rovers, well I should say, some Rovers.  BTW, you can have as many Station Locations as you want!  When I was taking care of W5ANR's LOTW, we had several that match the grid square and county they were in.

Some logging programs will update to the correct grid that LOTW is claiming which makes it nice!

Good point Pat & Steve...so I looked one up and attached is the details of my QSO with KO4PRE (toward the bottom of the 2nd page of my LoTW pics)...

Details show his grid square... I checked every contact that didn't show grid confirmation on the 2 screenshots I attacked and all of them have their grid in the details...

Wasn't there a comic strip years ago that went something like..."Things That Make You Go Hmmmmm"...

Dennis,

Some ops don’t populate the Grid Square info when establishing a station location in TQSL.  You can ask the op to update his station location to include their Grid and resubmit.  Some will….some won’t.  Look at the “Details” of the QSO….that will let you know if their station location has Grid Square populated.



73,

Pat, W5VY

After the flurry of 6m action last night, I  looked at my LoTW QSL section for VUCC...I have noticed recently that some of my 6m confirmations do not show a confirmed grid square in the VUCC column...Anyone have any thoughts as to why some do and some don't?...I've attached a screenshot showing a section of confirmations and you can see several 6m contacts that don't show grid square confirmation in the right hand column...



The reason I ask this is because I have recently had 2 contacts (both in SA) that were new grids I needed and both come back confirmed but with no VUCC Grid Credit on the right hand column...
