There have been no uploads for OK1YQ therefore it all has to be cards. 73 Clive GM3POI

We've seen 160m " QSO's" on Club Log and subsequent confirmation on LOTW on plain day light. 73's JC N4IS -----Original Message----- From: Topband <topband-boun...@contesting.com> On Behalf Of w...@w5zn.org Sent: Saturday, November 17, 2018 8:12 AM To: topband <topband@contesting.com> Subject: Re: Topband: ARRL DXCC - 160 Meters Folks - I'm not exactly understanding the LoTW comments on this thread. If it is referring to the LoTW screen shot totals listed by OK1RD on his website then that is the combined totals in his DXCC record, not the totals confirmed solely via LoTW so a "hack" has not necessarily occurred. Regardless, there is convincing evidence some bogus QSL cards were reviewed and accepted by a DXCC card checker somewhere and then entered into his DXCC record! 73 Joel W5ZN On 2018-11-17 05:29, Bill Tippett wrote: >>> Doesn't say much for the DXCC checking process either. 73 Clive >>> GM3POI > > > Guys this was probably done by OK1RD to embarrass ARRL/DXCC, in > retaliation > > for ARRL (correctly) removing his bogus listing over 10 years ago.
