I have been helping my father W1JR get on the LoTW bandwagon. This also means
getting him on the electronic logging bandwagon. As far as I know, he's
current with 2005 logging (LoTW pending) but I have no idea about prior years
(he may be backfilling in reverse chronological order). I've seen his
logbooks, and how fast he goes through them. I don't know whether he'll EVER be
fully in the system.
Remember, the top guys aren't young whippersnappers who have been using PCs all
or most of their adult lives. It's not as easy for them.
