"Upl Cnf", if I understand it correctly, means that ithe uploaded QSO has been confirmed on LotW. LotW marks confirmed QSOs by putting the country name in the table. (You don't give an entity when uploading a QSO, you just provide your country. The other station tells LotW what entity their side of the QSO took place from. Then LotW has the info it needs to put the country name in the confirmation.) I think it's working as intended. -Rick -- Rick Murphy, CISSP-ISSAP, K1MU/4, Annandale VA USA From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Feb 27 12:59:17 2008 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Larry Burke) Date: Wed Feb 27 13:03:05 2008 Subject: [Dx4win] LoTW Question In-Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Thanks for the reply, Rick. Guess I am either still unclear on the concept or I am doing something wrong. Let me provide a specific example: I uploaded my log from mid December 2007 to the current date. This included some 20 VP6DX contacts. All 20 of these VP6DX QSOs were matched on LoTW. But on the LoTW web page some VP6DX QSOs showed the country name "Ducie Island" and for other VP6DX QSOs the country name was blank. When I downloaded the ADIF file from the ARRL server (having selected "Imported QSO set Upload Confirmed Flag") those QSOs for which the country name was shown as "Ducie Island" had a "Y" in the "Upl Cnf" column of my DX4WIN log. Those QSOs for which the country was blank in LoTW did not have a "Y" in the "Upl Cnf" column of DX4WIN. This was very obvious with the VP6DX QSOs since there were so many in one block. So I checked back at QSOs with other stations. Same thing.... Even if confirmed in LoTW, if there is no county name in the column there is not a "Y" in the "Upl Cnf" column of DX4WIN - Larry K5RK -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rick Murphy Sent: Wednesday, February 27, 2008 11:10 AM To: dx4win@mailman.qth.net Subject: Re: [Dx4win] LoTW Question On Wed, Feb 27, 2008 at 6:36 AM, Larry Burke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I vaguely remember the following problem being discussed before, but > do not recall the final resolution and can't seem to find the answer > in the archives. > > I upload/download to LoTW a few times a year, so I am by no means a > power user.

"Upl Cnf", if I understand it correctly, means that ithe uploaded QSO has been confirmed on LotW. LotW marks confirmed QSOs by putting the country name in the table.
