LOTW correction upload

For those of us who use a radio that isn't connected to their computer, the frequency has to be manually entered and sometimes it's entered wrongly (or left on the previous frequency/band).

If you upload a log entry to LOTW, then realise the frequency/band is wrong, the normal upload via QSL Management, LOTW and "Select required" doesn't show the entry (as the program assumes you don't that you need to upload with the correction). The only way is to save the entry as an ADIF file and run the TQSL program, which is tedious.

For those not familiar with LOTW, you correct errors by uploading the correct info as it's not currently possible to edit an entry once uploaded.

A tick box to show all entries (that always opens with it not ticked) would be a way around the issue.

Hi Dave

The only way is to save the entry as an ADIF file and run the TQSL program, which is tedious.
Another way would be to double click the QSO, click on the QSL Information tab, change LOTW from Y-yes to Q - queued click Save then "Select Required" works :D
