</div>Nice LOTW display of my efforts so far……..BUT….Don’t let this fool you
……this shows I “worked” (QSO’d) all 50 states for W1AW/x…which I have, BUT it
does not show the confirmed QSL’s…..you have to go to LOTW proper to get that.
In my awards tracking, I still have one state that has not QSL’d my QSO’s even
though I have worked them twice….. So… I will on the air working them as much
as possible when they are on in 2 weeks.
TNX Bruce. Fun stuff…73…Rick – W5RH

arrl posted this on the lotw site on october 15. i am just a little slow
manually checking the site. you can see what states you are lacking (i need 5
more). also you can see how many points you have accumulated. i am sitting at
4,300 without much effort. i will not hit anywhere near 15,000. you have to
seriously operate to do that.
everyone should be able to get the 1,000 entry level certificate as the arrl
president is worth 300 points, a director is worth 225 and a section manager is
175. i have picked up 7 (don't know why that low, my log shows more) of the
w100aw stations. if you work the w1aw portable stations, each is worth 5 points
so you can rack up a few working all the different bands and modes each week
from them.
enjoy

Oct 15, 2014: ARRL Centennial QSO Party Week 43 -- NEW NEW NEW --- W1AW/7 in
Nevada, and W1AW/8 in West Virginia are on the air. Thanks to all the great
operators and station hosts all year, and special thanks to those who journey
far to put on places like KG4, KH6, KH8, KL7 and KHØ.
Also, note that the final point levels for the QSO Party awards have been set:
1,000 points = First Level Award Certificate
3,000 points = Second Level Award Certificate
7,500 points = Third Level Award Certificate
15,000 points = Top Level Award Certificate
With two and a half months left in the Centennial Year, there is still plenty
of time to rack-up those points.
