[SADXA] YN2LJ and LoTW

[jdwothe at cox.net]

Wes:

My general log in LOTW has some mode problems in it that I need to fix. In talking to a couple of experts they tell me to call the LOTW folks at ARRL and that they are very helpful. I was also told that you cant really change anything in the log but reload the corrected files. That creates other problems but I have not got to that part yet. Some folks that had problems the nature of mine said they changed the mod, or what ever the correction is and then changed the time of the QSO by a few seconds so it would still fall in the search window which is something like 20 minutes + -.

That is a summer project to fix the file, several hundred QSOs and figure out just how many 160 countries I really have.

For what its worth.
