On my QRZ page it says "No LoTW, no eQSL and no Buro."
That may be your preference, but it causes everyone who wants a confirmation
from you to spend money with the postal system. When we were kids, it cost a
penny or two to send a QSL. Now, including the cost of printing a card, it
costs someone who wants your card more than $1 round trip (.49 each way) in
the US, more than $2 between US and Canada, average $3.50 to/from other
countries.
LOTW and eQSL are FREE and easy to use if you're using almost any of the
popular logging software. Putting our logs on LOTW is the considerate thing to
do. It's the RIGHT thing to do. It's the modern equivalent of what we said in
the '50s -- "the last courtesy of a QSO is a QSL." Now, the last courtesy of a
QSO is an upload to LOTW.
