Robin,
A quick question... If for instance, the ARRL were to change input
format for LoTW in such a way as to break HRD, and after a year of
ownership, would the corrective update be free, or would the HRD user
have to pay for an update to get the correction?

I doubt that *any* software company will guarantee free support for
changes by third party companies/organizations (particularly since
some companies like QRZ.com seem to make changes just to break third
party software on a regular basis).

If something happens to break HRD, which is/was out of HRD's
control, then I expect you would pay for the fix.
They can't be held responsible for the actions of others.

HRD itself is free to update, or not update, as they see fit, I

I am not suggesting that they must update, but

If you didn't want to renew your subscription, you could manually upload
to LoTW by exporting the contacts in ADIF format, running TQSL, and
uploading directly to LoTW. It's no where as convenient, but it is

In cases like this, fixes are free for the current version.
New features are what are going to be charged.
Bug fixes are free for the lifetime of the product.

Interesting coincidence is that i just finished hooking up my K3 to the
Signalink USB and HRD. Like 11 minutes ago.
The cable i use has 3 plugs: line in, line out and PTT.
I didn't connect the PTT at all because i'm using that jack on the K3 for my
foot switch.
So HRD keys the radio via CAT.
