[Dxbase] Feature Request!

[George Harlem W1EBI]

Lest that misstatement become the final word, here is the snip from LoTW
regarding whether ARRL membership is required for LoTW participation
(which was the original question):

"Do I have to be an ARRL member to use LoTW? 


No. Anyone can submit log data to LoTW. U.S. Amateurs must be ARRL
members to obtain DXCC, WAS, or VUCC awards. Amateurs residing outside
the U.S. can participate in any awards."
