Hi! I just finished updating my satellite log for my operating over the past few days in Ohio and other locations. I operated from the following locations during my trip (dates are using UTC time):
Tilbury, Ontario (grid EN82sg), 15 May Indiana/Ohio state line (grid EM79ot), 17 and 19 May Englewood, Ohio (grid EM79uu), 17 May Trotwood, Ohio (Hamvention - grid EM79ut) - 18 May New Richmond, Ohio (grid EM78ux) - 18 May Hamersville, Ohio (grids EM78xw and EM88aw) - 18 and 19 May Miamisburg, Ohio (grid EM79vp) - 19 May I operated as WD9EWK for all locations except my first stop in Ontario, where I operated as VA7EWK/3. All of these QSOs are now in Logbook of the World, and I would be happy to send QSL cards for any QSOs made with WD9EWK or VA7EWK/3. Please e-mail me the QSO details, and - if you're in the log - I will send out the card(s). No need to first send me QSL cards or SASEs to get my card(s). If you use Logbook of the World and want to see QSLs for both sides of the Indiana/Ohio state line, please upload two QSO records to represent that QSO on each side of the state line. Put the same information in each record, except make the time different in each QSO record by at least one minute. Without this adjustment, one of the QSO records will replace the other, when LOTW sees two QSO records for the same date and time with the same station. LOTW can handle up to 4 grid locators in a single QSO record, but is not capable of handling multiple states (or provinces, counties, and countries) in a single QSO record. I have uploaded two QSO records to LOTW for each QSO I made at the state line, ensuring the QSO time in the record for each side of the state line differs by one minute. Some have also already uploaded two QSO records for each QSO completed with WD9EWK at the state line, and have received credit for QSOs with both Wayne County in Indiana and Preble County in Ohio (the two counties that come together at that point on the state line, near the I-70/US-40 interchange at Richmond IN). Please e-mail me directly if you worked me at this location, and need further assistance in seeing confirmations for both sides of the state line. 73!
