After standing out by the mailbox all night, my DXCC Yearbook finally came today. I was so looking forward to seeing my call in there for the Challenge award. I thought that was the reason we had to have all of our cards in by 12/31/06 so they would count for this years Challenge Award. This ye

Hi DX-ers. Is anybody experiencing problems with the LoTW databases? I worked Dave Summer as 4O3ZZ and he put his QSOs on the LoTW. The QSO showed up that I worked him. After my application for credit, the QSO was credited to my Challenge DXCC account but not to my DXCC account as a new count

I'm perfectly happy to see the standing on the WEB page. They are updated regularly and show the current standings rather than a once a year (outdated) snapshot. That being said, the Database that shows these standing is still unavailable! Gerry VE6LB/VA6XDX DXCC Field Checker-Southern Alber

I don't think this is an issue of connectivity or the desire for non-computer-savvy hams to have to much through the ARRL site, etc. In my opinion, it's exactly the same issue as paper QSLs versus LoTW. With the standings printed in the yearbook, it's there on paper pages, now and forever more
