Oh? It costs money to upload to Logbook? Gee, someone better tell the League to send me a bill...
Sorry Rick, but there is NO COST for uploading your log. Costs only come into play when you apply for an award (DXCC at the moment, more to follow I'm sure). And as I recall, it is does NOT cost more to apply for DXCC via Logbook; might even cost less, I don't remember the exact numbers offhand. You know, I don't get it. For years, certain quarters screamed because the ARRL insisted on physical cards sent to Newington. Then they screamed when Field Checkers went into place. Now they're screaming because Logbook, finally up and running, can mean that you get your credits in days or hours instead of weeks, months, even years. The common theme in all the various levels of screaming is that the League is "greedy" and "money grubbing" and so on and so forth. Can't they, just once, get a break for doing something pretty much not just right, but what they were asked to do? Sheesh. 73 ----- Original Message ----- From: "rkenwood" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <dx-chat@njdxa.org> Sent: Friday, January 21, 2005 11:52 PM Subject: [DX-CHAT] lotw > > > > > > > >I don't see how you guys afford to upload your logs to LOTW it seems to > >me just another way for ARRL to get money > >Rick > > > >Ron Notarius wrote: > > > > > > > >>As I recall, during the development of LotW, the ARRL planned all along to > >>permit other organizations to interface with the system.
