One has to keep in mind that when you download from LoTW, you get only the new confirmations since the last time you downloaded (if you pick, the default starting date). This has nothing to do with the date of the QSO, but rather the date when the man behind the curtain matches up the QSO data on both sides. If I download on 12 August, the next time I download, LoTW will automatically START with QSOs that have been confirmed starting on 12 August, no earlier. So the downloads are incremental. You can always change the download start date to something earlier if you want to get a more complete report. I always name the lotwreport.adi file with the date I downloaded it (i.e. lotwreport_2009-08-12.adi). 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim Reisert AD1C, <jjreis...@alum.mit.edu>, http://www.ad1c.us ______________________________________________________________ Dx4win mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Dx4win@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
