Sorry for the off topic post, but my curiosity is getting the better of me.
I'm just curious how many of the folks on this list are using LOTW and/or
eQSL.org... And what your thoughts are on either of these.
I started playing with eQSL a few months ago, and just got started with LOTW
today. eQSL seems to be doing much better for me... About a 10% return
rate. As for LOTW, I uploaded 60 log entries today and got 2 hits, which
makes the return rate about 3.3%.
Personally, I still prefer a card sent through the mail, and I generally
follow up an electronic QSL with a paper card. LOTW leaves you with nothing
to look at and nothing to touch, which really kind of turns me off. At
least with eQSL, you get a card you can print. Still, it's hard to beat
getting a card in the mail... At least in my book.
Thoughts?
