Just a heads up, and I am not trying to poor cold water on Paul's
efforts he has responded well when an error has been found, BUT.

Be very careful when running a lotwreport.Adi download into your log.
Make sure you have a safe backup so that if you don't like the results
you can go back.

I don't believe this function is working correctly yet.  I have two
issues.

Firstly after running the download into 7.01 my Upl Cnfm's match what
the LoTW web site says exactly.  Doing the exact same procedure into
7.02 v13 I end up with hundreds of extra Upl Cfm's which is total
rubbish.

Secondly if you try to import the QSO information into your log, it will
over write your existing information and put a note in the notes for
this QSO. Supposedly you should be able to do this without over writing
you existing information just get the entries in the notes for this QSO
field if the information is different.

Well perhaps I am doing something wrong with this one but it sure looks
like it works completely reverse to how the book tells it.

I am going back to 7.01 and I'm going to let everyone else be the guinea
pigs until the dust settles on this 7.02 fiasco.
