I've been doing LOTW now for several months, but have not submitted any
of the QSL's there for awards. Meanwhile, I have about 100 cards that I
can submit for endorsements including a few new countries. I usually
take my cards to Ham-Com in Dallas during June for QSL checking there.
However, now my questions begin, and I'm hoping some of you have been
through this already to know how well DX4WIN works in this regard (mixed
QSLing). My questions are:
1. Does DX4WIN have a way of submitting LOTW QSO's like it does for
paper cards? I don't see one.
2. How can I be sure that cards I take with me don't have a QSL already
in LOTW (maybe not for that QSO, but for that country/band/mode?)
3. Has anyone done much with this mixed QSL confirmation yet?
4. Has Paul fixed the problem where a new country card submitted gets
automatically counted for both band and mode, not just for the mixed
award yet?
Anything I've forgotten that will bite me? Submitting QSL's and
reconciling the results are some of the most fun I have every year! Ha,
ha!

I have not done a "linked" submission yet - someone please advise Duane here.

Can you please explain more about this? DX4WIN will submit any
confirmation towards any band/mode that helps your DXCC totals
towards those particular band/mode awards. Are you saying DX4WIN
doesn't do this, or that you want DX4WIN to *not* do this?
