[amsat-bb] New version of LOTW

[Wes Baden]

Anyone else not pleased with the new version "improving" LOTW, at least as
it involves SAT contacts?  Can we get ARRL to undo some things?  At least
on my computer, you no longer can press the Enter key to go down entry
fields one after another.  It's a much slower process now.  Also, the two
most common modes that we've been using on LOTW, CW and VOICE, are no
longer first in line, where an expanded list of modes is alphabetized.
This also slows down entries.  Worse yet, VOICE is no longer a listed mode
at all.  It's been replaced by SSB, LSB and USB.  I could be wrong, but
isn't this in particular going to make QSO matching more difficult?  Should
SAT ops simply enter SSB, or should it be USB (the output of satellites) or
LSB (our input to them)?  In sum, the whole process is now slower with
multiple opportunities for matching errors and contacts not being
confirmed.  Ugh.
