DXKeeper can upload QSOs to LotW with a single mouse click; the process of exporting an ADIF file, invoking TQSL to produce an encrypted file, and uploading the encrypted file to LotW is entirely automated. Updating your log to reflect uploaded QSOs accepted by LotW and QSLs generated by LotW is similarly automated.
There is software that blind ops can use in conjunction with DXKeeper; if your friend would like to explore this, I'd be happy to make the appropriate introduction. DXKeeper is a member of the freeware DXLab Suite; its available via http://www.dxlabsuite.com/download.htm . Just click the "Install Launcher" button... 73, Dave, AA6YQ -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Don Sent: Sunday, April 22, 2007 9:18 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; 'DX Chat Reflector' Subject: RE: [DX-CHAT] Help Request Kay Have a quick look at "DXKEEPER" -- its freeware along with the rest of the DXlab toolset. It interacts quite well with the LOTW, although he will have to use the standard path to take an ADI file through the LOTW software. This isn't done by DXkeeper (or any other logging program) It will quite easily interact and download the actual QSL's granted by LOTW and keep track of how he's doing against DXCC, WAS, County Hunter, and a myriad of others. And its Free and works quite well. He'll still have to enter the QSOs from his paper logs... 73 Don AC7ZG -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kay W. Hargis Sent: Sunday, April 22, 2007 3:41 PM To: DX Chat Reflector Subject: [DX-CHAT] Help Request Good morning, A friend of mine, who has been loosing his sight for a few years is now termed as "Legally Blind", although he can see and use his computer with the aid of a magnifying glass. He wants to put his logs on Logbook of The World, but has never had a computer logging program that he entered his contacts in. This means he needs to enter the contacts into a logging program that is compatible with the format required by LoTW... I believe either the adif or the cabrillo format is acceptable. I have initiated the paperwork needed to get him started and he says he is able to make the entries from his paper logs into a logging program. What we need is a simple logging program... Doesn't have to be able to track awards or anything else, just a basic program that will allow him ease of use and the ability to interact with LoTW. It needs to be either in a format acceptable to LoTW or one that has a conversion program with it that will convert it to an acceptable format. Does anyone know of a shareware or reasonably priced simple program I can download and install on his computer so he can start making his entries. Thank you...
