FYI LOTW


k8eew
 

I seen an E-Mail on another reflector and this ham was wondering why
his contact with E30NA changed from QSL to QSO, this is part of the E-
Mail.





I apologize for the long delay in responding to your messge.

I checked the LoTW records and see that there should be a QSL match
for your
10M QSO with E30NA.

LoTW has been experiencing issues with "changing" QSLs. From what we
can
tell, it appears that if either party uploads the same QSL data,
sometimes
the QSL changes back to a QSO. The programmer is aware of this and is
trying to fix it. The counter in the upper right corner may also be
off.

You might want to try and sign & upload the one QSO for E30NA that
changed.
You can create a single QSO file by opening TQSL program and use
create an
ADIF file. Please follow the instructions and then sign the one
QSO. This
may reset the QSO back to a QSL.

We are sending the follow message to the LoTW users who have
experienced
some problems with their DXCC and WAS totals.

Due to some hardware communications issues, some LoTW users have
experienced
discrepancies in their QSL data as related to LoTW and paper QSLs.
Please be
assured that the QSOs are still in LoTW and all the data is secure and
intact. The programmer is aware of these problems and is trying to
correct
them.

We will have it resolved soon. LoTW numbers may not jive with
recorded
data until the communications issues are resolved.

When the programmer gets these issues fixed, there will be a reset of
the
entire LoTW system to correct the tallies. We apologize for the
inconvenience.

Again, I apologize for the delay in answering you.

Thank you for your participation.

Hi Frank,

I have lost a total of 3 LotW QSLs over the last several months. The only answer I have gotten from my emails, phone calls and a personal visit to ARRL HQ was "We're working on it." Fortunately when you do a sync in DXKeeper it will NOT un-QSL any of your LotW QSL. So all you have to do is match your total number of LotW QSLs in DXKeeper to the total number of LotW QSLs on the LotW website to find out if you have any missing LotW QSLs.

I can tell you that re-uploading the first 2 un-QSL'd LotW QSOs did fix the problem. I have been waiting for them to fix the last missing QSL. BTW it can be pretty difficult to figure out which one is missing. I did it by downloaded the full LotW QSL file from the LotW site and comparing that against my record of LotW QSLs in an EXCEL spreadsheet.

BTW the last email I have gotten from Kathy Allison, KA1RWY, LotW Specialist, was June 21st. I got no reply at all from my 2 subsequent emails and a phone call.

Sorry to hear this. Kathy is usually VERY good at responding to
emails. However, I guess no one is immune to letting some emails slip
through the crack. I know I've been guilty of it and I used to live
and breath email as a Lotus Notes, cc:Mail, and Exchange administrator
for a few years.

If the LotW development team doesn't get on top of this, I'll extend
the "Sync All LotW QSLs" operation to report any QSOs whose
LOTW_QSL_RCVD item is set to 'Y', 'S', or 'V" but is not reported as
confirmed in the information downloaded from LotW. This would be an
expensive option, but must faster than manual techniques.

Not a case of a QSL changing, but never showing a match:

Just last night, I did a Synch LOTW QSLs report, knowing I should
immediately get back 2 matches because tht 9Q1EK had just been uploaded to
them. Those two matches did not appear, although I had previously uploaded
my contacts. I simply changed the LOTW Send Y back to an R and again
uploaded them to LOTW, then did a Synch LOTW QSOs and QSLs and got an
immediate match. It made me wonder how many others I had uploaded, and for
which I never got a match back from them. Osten suggested I re-upload the
whole shebang, but at 24,044 QSOs I dont want to do that.

Yeah, I have to hand it to Kathy. We traded about a dozen or so emails over
the past week getting a club station on LoTW after I mucked up the original
application and some other stuff. She was very helpful. If this
"dissappearing QSL" snafu is something she can take care of, she will.

Hi Dave,

Here's an update on the LotW missing QSL issue and the uploading of duplicate QSOs issue.

On Oct 9th I got an email from W3IZ from ARRL:
------------------------
Hi Art.
FYI.

Our programmers fixed the issue with the invisible QSOs and all QSOs uploaded from now on will be visible. They are working on the issue affecting previously uploaded data. As we discussed on the telephone this glitch does not in any way change DXCC totals.

73,

Norm, W3IZ
-----------------------

So they've fixed the upload of duplicate QSOs issue. I decided to wait a little to see if they fixed the missing QSLs. I haven't heard any more so today I re-uploaded all of my missing LotW QSL QSOs. It worked. My DXK LotW QSLs matches the LotW website. I still have over 300 zombies. I decided to not make this public knowledge because it could result in the LotW website being overwhelmed if many decide to re-upload.

No word on deleting zombies yet. Have you heard anything? I'm tired . . Goodnight!

No, I've heard nothing about a way to retract uploaded QSOs. Unless

I seen an E-Mail on another reflector and this ham was
wondering
why
his contact with E30NA changed from QSL to QSO, this is part
of
the E-
Mail.





I apologize for the long delay in responding to your messge.

I checked the LoTW records and see that there should be a QSL
match
for your
10M QSO with E30NA.

LoTW has been experiencing issues with "changing" QSLs. From
what we
can
tell, it appears that if either party uploads the same QSL
data,
sometimes
the QSL changes back to a QSO. The programmer is aware of
this
and is
trying to fix it. The counter in the upper right corner may
also be
off.

You might want to try and sign & upload the one QSO for E30NA
that
changed.
You can create a single QSO file by opening TQSL program and
use
create an
ADIF file. Please follow the instructions and then sign the
one
QSO. This
may reset the QSO back to a QSL.

We are sending the follow message to the LoTW users who have
experienced
some problems with their DXCC and WAS totals.

Due to some hardware communications issues, some LoTW users
have
experienced
discrepancies in their QSL data as related to LoTW and paper
QSLs.
Please be
assured that the QSOs are still in LoTW and all the data is
secure and
intact. The programmer is aware of these problems and is
trying to
correct
them.

We will have it resolved soon. LoTW numbers may not jive
with
recorded
data until the communications issues are resolved.

When the programmer gets these issues fixed, there will be a
reset of
the
entire LoTW system to correct the tallies. We apologize for
the
inconvenience.

Again, I apologize for the delay in answering you.

Thank you for your participation.

73,
