LOTW "Select Required"

Post by WA2SQQ »

Just made about 10 contacts and attempted to upload them to LOTW.
Selected "QSL tools"/"QSL Managemenmt"/"LOTW"/and "Select Required"

It only shows 3 QSO's - two from 2016 and one from 1971.
EQSL works fine
It looks like the link to the database is broken or changed?
What setting determines where Select Required looks to?
BTW, If I look at Recent QSO's, all my contacts are there.

There is a new user selection in the options to choose what the result of select required does, r requested or n no

Hello Terry,

I've looked over the manual. I'm probably having a Stupid Moment :oops: , but I can't figure out R-Required and N-No. I end up with L4OM wanting to upload my entire log, even though I might have only one or two QSOs to send. All I want to do is have it automatically upload my QSOs from the current session, whether it be one or 100. How do I do that?

Thanks and 73,

How are the QSO's marked for LOTW upload in your logbook they will either be R- Requested or N-No


Select whichever way they are marked in the options/External logs window and check the 'Automatic upload' check box


Now any QSO's that have not been uloaded will be uploaded when you close Log4OM - You will be prompted to click the upload button

Okay, I did it. Now, when it does an upload, will it change the Sent status to Yes?
