Hello Dave, others, It's my understanding that if one were to (pay for) and print a QSL from the e.QSL website and then physically send/mail it to Newington it would be rejected because the League won't accept e.QSL's.
As an aside, I wonder how a field QSL checker would deal with an eQSL? Are there guidelines for them regarding e.QSL's? I am assuming that the printed out QSL's are in some way labeled ...? I am aware that e.QSL does have a way to "validate" a user. Apparently their method of "validation" isn't acceptable to the League. There seems to be no way for the League to detect an e.QSL that's been "laundered" by submitting the QSL via a LoTA submission. It would appear that -if- one can submit a laundered e.QSL via LoTW there is little reason for the League to continue their stringent methods that have made the DXCC program so creditable, and that's sad. I have 12K+ QSO's to submit, but I'm now having second thoughts about participating in the program. 73! Ken Kopp - K0PP [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED]
