7O1YGF now Lotw

2009-08-20 17:43:05 | Weblog
The logs for 7O1YGF have now been uploaded to LoTW. Please follow this procedure if you want to
claim credit:

As with paper applications if you submitted 7O1YGF in the past and had it rejected, we will accept
an e-application via LoTW and you will not be charged a submission fee for 7O1YGF only.

Make sure you have uploaded your QSOs. DXCC cannot open and search the logs for your QSO since doing
this will not show the match that is required for a LoTW confirmation;

Access your account and begin the application process;

If you select only the 7O1YGF QSOs you will not be assessed the fees that LoTW will report back to
you. If you choose other QSOs a regular submission fee will apply;

Complete the application (all 4 parts) and DXCC will place your e-application on the list for
processing;

Special note for 7O1YGF applications ONLY: On Part 4 of the LoTW application click "Payment by mail"
This step is VERY important to assure proper handling. If you clicked on part one any QSOs other
than 7O1YGF you must make proper payment.

Again: The above is ONLY for 7O1YGF submissions. Applications with other QSOs will be handled, and
charged, as a regular submission.

DXCC will not acknowledge completion of the application. When finished, your numbers in LoTW will
reflect the completion of your e-application.

If you achieve Honor Roll or Top of the Honor Roll from this submission and you would like to order
the wall plaque, you can send me an e-mail or fax your order or send the order form by regular mail.

73 es DX!
