Hello Pete,

when I started with LoTW some years ago, the return rate was around 8 or 9 % 
as I recall.  I work mostly cw and contests so the 38% return rate may be 
influenced by those factors.  Either way, it sure beats the paper card route 
although I still send and receive the traditional paper cards out as well.
