No luck so far...........the "Band" setting reflects SAT from DX4WIN.....how do you submit 2400 down, 70 cm up? And, do they require (somewhere) a satellite NAME?? Mom never said it would be easy....... ;-) Joe,
I just asked this on the DX reflector (not specifically related to DX4Win). To find the format that LoTW is looking for, go into TQSL --> File --> Create ADIF. That will show you the fields and acceptable options. How to get from DX4Win output to this input seems to be a user's problem, at this point - i.e. I'm not aware of anything available to do it automatically. The other question I don't know the answer to is which fields are required by LoTW. I do know that the "Prop mode" must be satellite in both logs. I do not know if bands must match, and/or if the satellite name is required. (The LoTW FAQs do explain that the satellite name must match for a Q to count.) Any enlightenment would be appreciated!
