[Dx4win] DX4WIN Yields LOTW SUCCESS !

I was going to say similar.  You should not be uploading your COMPLETE WSJT ADI each time (if containing all your old uploaded QSOs too).  Duplicates may not normally cause an upload problem/error, but uses LOTW server time to scan the duplicates, which would now be quite large after years of FT8.  Having hundreds do that is not insignificant time consumption despite the good speed of LOTW server processing.  There are limitations in place right now to prevent duplicate logs being uploaded so the server may have stopped after certain many duplicates since 99+% were duplicates before the new ones would start processing.

I also exported from DX4WIN to cover ALL QSOs (phone, CW, etc.), not just WSJT modes, at the same time with one upload (when I was using DX4WIN).  I dated the filenames so I knew where to begin the next download.

I believe that the ARRL stated if you upload a log with a massive amount of QSOs that were already loaded.   Those files would be ignored or put in a holding pattern.   All due to the massive amount of uploads as it comes back on line.  By selecting the date range your file became "acceptable" if you will.

I would think if there was an actual issue with the WSJT-X ADIF itself the development team would have been aware and fixed it. Also since it seems to have imported into DX4WIN it shouldn't have been corrupted.
