[amsat-bb] Lotw use

[Andrew Glasbrenner]

Bob, I think some major changes have occurred recently. In the past I would not have disagreed with you, but for the past year or two I've been the designated point-person on sending in new satellites to be added to TQSL. The last three I sent were added in less than 24 hours. I still hear of the occasional hiccup, but overall satellites seem to be well integrated and supported lately. The ARRL should be commended for that improvement.

SAT/LoTW Users,

ARRL does not give much attention to Satellite LoTW users and/or operations - IMHO. If there is something needing to be done for DXCC-HF, they fall over themselves working on it - again, IMHO. Maybe we should bombard various League Officials with e-mails to get their attention? I'm not suggesting this as a solution, just a question in the recesses of my mind.

Perhaps, a knowledgeable person from the SAT Community could work with a willing person at the ARRL. They might be able to get things corrected and up-to-date some day. HIHI

Note that the list on the ARRL's website has not been updated with the recent additions of JO-97, FO-99, and QO-100. Also, it lists "EO88", but the correct name in the LoTW configuration file is "EO-88"
