One thing that the guy at LOTW told me was, they really want input 
from anyone that beta tests.  So, what ever kind of problems that you 
run across, send them a detailed email to the address on the LOTW home 
page: http://p1k.arrl.org/lotw/default  To get signed up, go to: 
www.arrl.org/lotw

So far I haven't found it very user friendly.  Yes, it's only beta. 
But, I have a couple of friends that use computers for logging, and 
are as computer literate as a brick.  I would hate to have to try and 
explain how to use LOTW to them.  Hopefully, by the time they are 
ready to release a full version, they will have it so there is only 
one step to get a certificate and one to upload a log.
