[Dx4win] LOTW report question

Mystery solved!

11 of the 12 QSOs in question were for PJ2/W2UP.  Apparently LOTW lumps 
them together, but I have a separate log for that operation.

1 of the 12 QSOs,  S55W from 2004, was just recently uploaded by him.  
He had the mode as Phone, not SSB.  I presume that mismatch is a problem 
in DX4WIN.
