[LOGic] yet another lotw related logic question...

[Michael Herron]

If you are submitting any cards at all you may as well use the cards rather 
than pay the LOTW costs per card.
As far as marking them goes I thought it to be a good idea also, at least 
initially,  but once a card or LOTW credit is submitted it doesn't really 
matter. It then is just a confirmed country, LOTW or otherwise. For that 
matter, you don't even need the dang card anymore! I did just make a note in 
the comments field as  "LOTW" for those contacts I had LOTW credits for. 
Many of these I also had cards for, and some not, so should I make a note of 
that too? Nah! Once I was done I found it to be a waste of time. Try to keep 
your records as simple as possible. You can create a lot of extra work that 
is redundant or entirely unnecessary. I just submitted a handfull of cards 
and some LOTW credits ( just those credits I did not have cards for). I just 
got the cards I had and compared them to the LOTW credits I had from the 
LOTW web page. It didn't take long and I saved about $10 by sending the 
cards instead of paying for the credits. Anyway that's my couple cents on 
the subject. Mike K7MH.
