That's what I was going to basically say. Never will be a LoTW match unless they go back. You uploaded with the correct info in case they do? As long as the records match credits you are fine and all you can do. I too have DXCC submittals from 80's - 90's and all they did was write the call suffix on the proper record sheet (SSB, CW, etc.) and did not note date, band, even mode in some cases.

These are probably pre-computerization QSLs. I have several DXCC records that have no info other than a entity name since I've never submitted a paper card or LoTW credit since computerization. For example, this one: *Worked Station* *Worked* 002 *DXCC* ABU AIL ISLANDS (DELETED) (2) *Date* 1945-11-15 *Mode* UNKNOWN *Band* UNKNOWN There's no QSO details for LoTW to provide since there's no QSO details recorded. I occasionally submit QSLs to fill in the details for these, especially back when a submission allowed 100 QSLs. 73 -Rick On Mon, Feb 12, 2018 at 6:32 PM, Lee Hallin <hall...@lanecc.edu> wrote: > I have found that sometimes the entry in the DXCC_QSLs... file (that > you download from LoTW to show DXCC confirmations) has the wrong date. > The date seems to be "guessed" by LoTW.
