[SJRA-Members] SJRA, <yourcall>/100 and LoTW

With the help of the people at LoTW/ARRL, I cracked the code for logging to 
LoTW using the Centennial call sign <yourcall>/100.

Refer to the attached screen shots.

1. You must apply to LoTW for a Callsign Certificate with your /100 call. 
When you receive it, install it in your TQSL program. Note you will then 
have two "gold ribbon" certificates.

2. You must then create in TQSL another Station Location for the /100 call 
sign. Mine is identical to my original station location with my /100 call 
sign and with 100 appended to my city name, e.g. Austin100.

The following applies to my logging program Log4OM, but I'm sure your logger 
will have something similar.

3. I created a second Logging Configuration and Logging Station Info to hold 
my /100 station call sign and city name. I change my logging program to this 
configuration when operating as /100.

4. When uploading to LoTW, I change the TQSL information to match my /100 
location.

5. Note the LoTW log excerpt showing two QSOs from W5RKN/100.

People can QSL to you on LoTW with your "normal" call sign or with your 
"/100" call sign.

I'm looking forward to more on-the-air SJRA events this year.
