LoTW status error?


 

开云体育

I received the following resposnse from LoTW after giving it a Sync LoTW QSOs button press:

??????? Date????? Time?????????? Call??? Band????????? Mode?????? Submode?????? Station Call??? Result

? 2025-03-18? 02:42:06????????? 6Y7EI???? 80M?????????? FT8???????????????????????????? W5SV??? Error: no matching QSO in log

LotW Sync QSLs: 1 QSL processed, 0 log entries updated, 1 error

I checked the log, and that QSO was in doubt, and I had confirmed a QSO with that station about 7 hours later, so I deleted the corresponding entry in DXKeeper.

However, I still get the same error now.

What do I need to do to eliminate that error? I assume somehow remove it from LoTW, but how?

Thanks in advance & 73 de Dave, W5SV

+ Are you saying that the following actions occurred in this sequence?

1. you logged a QSO with 6Y8EI on 80m FT8 in DXKeeper

2. DXKeeper uploaded that QSO to LoTW

3. You invoked "Sync LoTW QSOs"

4. The " Error: no matching QSO in log" error message was displayed?

If so, the only explanation is that the QSO in our log was modified after you uploaded it to LoTW. To correct this,

5. log in to your LoTW account

6. locate the QSO with 6Y8EI

7. compare the details (date, time, band mode, etc.) with those of the 6Y8EI QSO in your log

8. modify the QSO in your log to match what's shown in LoTW, and save it.

9. with the 6Y8EI QSO's entry in the Log Page Display selected, right-click and choose "Update from LoTW" from the popup menu.

You *CAN NOT* eliminate the error since you removed the questionable
QSO from DXKeeper. LotW does not allow users to remove QSOs once
uploaded.

+ You can eliminate the error in one of two ways:

1. Restore the QSO to your log so that it will "match" what LoTW reports when you invoke "Update from LoTW"; if the QSO didn't actually happen, set its "QSL Rcvd" item to 'I' so that it won't be considered for award progress.

+ or

2. Uncheck the "Report unmatched QSOs and QSLs as errors" on the "QSL Configuration" window's LoTW.

+ I recommend #1 so that you can keep "Report unmatched QSOs and QSLs as errors" checked
