Hi!
On Sunday, 12 May 2019, I operated as CJ7EWK/3 from Point Pelee
National Park of Canada, southeast of Detroit and Windsor in grid
EN81rx. I logged a total of 60 satellite QSOs from this location,
and those QSOs were uploaded to Logbook of the World on that date.
Thanks for the QSLs I have received via LOTW. Today, I just uploaded
those 60 QSOs to the Canadian National Parks on the Air (CNPOTA) web
site http://cnpota.ca/ to be a part of that year-long activity. As
of now, I don't see any matches with my log in the CNPOTA web site.
As CNPOTA is not integrated with Logbook of the World like the ARRL
National Parks on the Air event was in 2016, chasers and activators
are required to upload their logs to the CNPOTA web site to participate
in CNPOTA. In this case, the upload may be a single QSO record in an
ADIF file, a QSO with CJ7EWK/3 in EN81 on 12 May, as a chaser. A minimum
of five confirmed QSOs are required for a CNPOTA activation, according
to the rules at https://cnpota.ca/rules/ (section 7). It would be nice
to have another activation of a CNPOTA site via satellite, as has
already been done by W8LID (as VE6LID) and AD0DX earlier in 2019.
Before the CNPOTA web site accepts a file upload, it is necessary to
first register with the CNPOTA web site.
Thanks in advance, and 73!
