+ AA6YQ comments below
I had a new experience recently. Since I am quite a newbie, I got a message that I had to renew my callsign certificate. So I did. I received my new certificate the following day and didn't activate it right away (I had no idea it inactivates my existing certificate.
+ The second sentence in
<>
+ is "Note that if you renew Callsign Certificate before it expires, requesting the renewal immediately invalidates the existing Callsign Certificate."
I kept on doing business as usual but noticed 4 or 5 days later that no new QSOs were in LotW. When I went to LotW and checked my account message, I found that LotW generated an error message: "Processing ABORTED: INVALID CERTIFICATE - Certificate may not be used. Certificate status = Superceded". I am not sure if this gets passed back to DXK, but if it does, it would be cool to display the error to the user. Obviously this is super low priority if not even nice to have.
+ LoTW does not make that error message available to applications like DXKeeper.
+ If you routinely invoke "Sync LoTW QSOs" then click the LoTW button in the Filter panel at the bottom of the Main window's "Log QSOs" tab, the Log Page Display will be populated with any QSOs submitted to LoTW but not yet accepted by LoTW , enabling you to investigate if necessary.
