Rick,
My logging program has been handling the upload duties for me for so long that 
I have
forgotten about TQSL signing the ADIF files for me :)
Just for the fun of it I brought up TQSL using the icon on my Desktop and did a 
search for state.
 
"Adding and Editing Station Locations" comes up where anyone can add things 
like Callsign, Zone(s), State, County, etc.

The first sentence says "Adding (or editing) a station location is performed 
via a wizard.

Guess there are several that haven't seen the wizard :)

Maybe someone can properly advise DX4WIN users the proper way to use TQ8 files.

There is nothing whatsoever in any way, shape, or form that DX4WIN can do to 
fix this. DXKeeper has exactly the same problem. 

Also, on the DX4WIN website there are several ways to save ADIF to DX4WIN.
Guess that could be a spot for keying errors:(    >>>

TrustedQSL (tqsl.exe on Windows) is used to process an ADIF file into a TQ8 
file. TrustedQSL ignores the state information in the ADIF file. You can place 
anything you want in your logging program and it won't matter since TQSL 
doesn't process it. TrustedQSL uses the station location that you set up in 
TQSLCert to decide what entity, state, and zone to use for that ADIF 
conversion; if you don't set that location up correctly, it won't be correct in 
LoTW.  

It's possible for a logging program to fix this by directly defining station 
locations in the TQSLcert database, but nobody is doing that as far as I know. 
They're all just handing the ADIF file to TQSL for signing. 
73,
