I have been thinking (it happens...) and I am going to upload
the 9Q1EK and 9Q1TB logs to LoTW. I have there before the
logs for my own calls and also ZK1EQL and CU2/SM7EQL.
There is a reason (beside "busted calls" which often happens
due to the QRN in Kinshasa): I have worked almost all the DX
there is to work, and as my XYL for 40 years passed away in
cancer October 28th 2008 I wanted to have something to keep
me occupied.
However I don't want to be as stubborn as Mr Harpole, and
therefore the logs will be on LoTW as soon as the administrator
has sent me the certificate keys.
IF you don't find your call in the LoTW, please e-mail me as
I can very well be a "busted call".
All the best to all of you and my apologies to those on LoTW who
have already spent money for the cards - should you however
want paper QSL's I will of course continue with those.

Hello Charles,
CH> I have a USA mail drop... my son receives my mail that comes to
CH> his and my USA address, 4301 Jenkins Dr, Plano, and he
CH> periodically sends my mail to me.... Last month he spent $148 usd
CH> to send me a slim FedEx box
So is that why you want _us_ to spend that money on that expensive
services, "...try Registered Mail or, if desperate, use FedEx, UPS, or
DHL"?
YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT TO DO. I AM SIMPLY TRYING TO CONVEY FACTS TO YOU RE QSLING. IF YOU DISLIKE MY WAYS, IGNORE
ME, PLEASE.
CH> LogBook Of The World.... why I do not use this great service:
CH> 1. I log onto old fashioned paper.
Just ask on the net, I bet you will find someone who is ready to enter
your logs to the computer. BTW your VU4 logs, are they paper logs?
YES.
CH> 2. I choose to do other much more interesting things than data entry.
See item 1.
CH> 3. I find LBOTW very difficult to use. And I have tried, and had help,
CH> still failed to get it.
Even I can do that for you if you send me your logs in ADIF and claim
me to be your "LoTW-manager" here on the DX-Reflector.
I ACCEPT YOUR OFFER OF HELP, IF IT DOES NOT VIOLATE ANY CUSTOMARY MODES OF QSLing AND VERIFICATION. I BET SEVERAL
OPINIONS ARISE ON THIS ITEM....BUT, ART, PSE SEE MY SEPARATE MESSAGE TO U RE THIS ITEM. BTW, WHAT IS "ADIF"? NOT KIDDING.
CH> 4. Upload times are long and expensive.
Well, it costs nothing in most parts of the world.
OK, I GUESS THE 5,000+ BAHT I SPEND MONTHLY FOR CONNECTION IS A FICTIONAL THING?
CH> 5. I am just set in my ways, a product of a maturing factor.
Not a reason to make us spend our money on DHL or postal expenses of
any kind.
ONCE AGAIN, I SAY-- IF YOU DISLIKE ME AND MY METHODS, JUST IGNORE ME... THERE IS A DELETE BUTTON, THERE IS YOUR CHOICE
NEVER TO CONTACT ME BY MAIL, ETC ETC.... NO GUNS TO UR HEAD. AND I SAY THIS TO ALL THE FLAMERS ON THE REFLECTOR: WHEN U
SEE MY NAME ON A MESSAGE, JUST DELETE IT AND SAVE UR BLOOD PRESSURE RISE.
I CLAIM THE RIGHT TO BE ME AND TO BE SET IN MY WAYS... AS IT APPEARS SO DO U.
CH> I am going to investigate the PayPal option, but it really smacks of
CH> commerce.
Sure it does.
