Ken,

I do not understand your concern.  If the QSOs actually took place, then you 
have every right to upload them to Lotw as part of your log.  They will only 
be confirmed if the other station likewise uploads a matching QSO to Lotw. 
The fact that the same QSO may have been confirmed by eQSL by both stations 
is totally irrelevant.  How can you cheat the system under this approach? 
You cannot upload QSOs from another station without that station's 
certificate.  The Lotw system is a fantastic innovation.  Wayne needs to be 
commended.

Dave, N4QS
