Nice LOTW display of my efforts so far……..BUT….Don’t let this fool you ……this shows I “worked” (QSO’d) all 50 states for W1AW/x…which I have, BUT it does not show the confirmed QSL’s…..you have to go to LOTW proper to get that. In my awards tracking, I still have one state that has not QSL’d my QSO’s even though I have worked them twice….. So… I will on the air working them as much as possible when they are on in 2 weeks.
TNX Bruce. Fun stuff…73…Rick – W5RH From: BVARC [mailto:bvarc-boun...@bvarc.org] On Behalf Of Bruce via BVARC Sent: Monday, October 27, 2014 9:09 AM To: BRAZOS VALLEY AMATEUR RADIO CLUB; Houston ECHO Society Subject: [BVARC] arrl centenial arrl posted this on the lotw site on october 15. i am just a little slow manually checking the site. you can see what states you are lacking (i need 5 more). also you can see how many points you have accumulated. i am sitting at 4,300 without much effort. i will not hit anywhere near 15,000. you have to seriously operate to do that. everyone should be able to get the 1,000 entry level certificate as the arrl president is worth 300 points, a director is worth 225 and a section manager is 175. i have picked up 7 (don't know why that low, my log shows more) of the w100aw stations. if you work the w1aw portable stations, each is worth 5 points so you can rack up a few working all the different bands and modes each week from them. enjoy 73...bruce Oct 15, 2014: ARRL Centennial QSO Party Week 43 -- NEW NEW NEW --- W1AW/7 in Nevada, and W1AW/8 in West Virginia are on the air.
