LOTW set up problems.

I am about half way through setting up LOTW, however I am stuck. Not sure what my next move is, do not understand what the program wants. Any help would be appreciated.

how far have you got and where exactly are you stuck - Step by step helps us!

BTW the LOTW server has been having problems since Sunday and its still not resolved so if it fails to upload it could be LOTW still messing us about

Good afternoon Terry. I have the post card with the PW on it and an email with another PW on it. I received another email "Here is your LoTW certificate for W3LI". That tells me to click on the LoTW certificate titled W3LI.tq6. I do that and another page comes up with all kinds of options on it. As you know I am not familiar with programmers lingo, so that is where I am. Btw Log40m working fine. Andy, W3LI

I think I should talk you through this on Skype but I can't do that until Friday because I am away from home until then.

Alternatively if you ask Chuck K7PT nicely he might be able to help you better because he is our awards and LOTW guru plus of course he is in much the same time zone as you, drop him an email
