LoTW QSL retrieval

Hi all,

I am trying to retrieve my LoTW QSL and this was working a few days ago and it is not anymore.
I did not change LoTW config...

When I click the down arrow in QSL Management / LOTW and I put the date 20/10/2013 to retrieve all QSL since 20/10/2013 it says "completed" "0 qso found" while I have received 20 QSL today on LoTW :(

When I import the lotwreport.adif it says all duplicates.

How can I upload the QSL status in my log with the QSL received today on LoTW ?

Thanks

This would indicate to me that the logbook records had already been updated! Have you checked what the LOTW received status of these QSO's is in your logbook?

If they are already marked received Y-yes or V-verified then they have already been updated

Hi Terry,

Nope in fact of course I checked and they were not received but I finally found my issue which was that my password was incorrect.
Something which maybe should be changed is that when password of LoTW is not correct the program will just put normal information such as : connected, retrieving contacts, 0 QSO found.

It should send a warning such as "login information incorrect, cannot connect to LoTW".

Good point Gregg I will add it to the Mantis list.

However I don't know what message is returned from LOTW, if there is no response to an incorrect user name or password there is not much we can do, I will consult Daniele about this.
