Update my earlier LOTW submission with new IOTA information
Dick Dievendorff, K6KR <dick@...>
I live on an IOTA recognized island. I just today figured out that I can change my TQSL LOTW certificate to indicate my IOTA. I've submitted QSO information to LOTW that lacked that IOTA information.
Is there a way I can ask DxKeeper to update my LOTW QSOs (for a particular certificate) so that others may see my IOTA number in their LOTW QSO? It's about 14 years worth of QSOs. TU! 73 de Dick, K6KR |

LotW will overwrite the old QSOs with the modified QSO data as long that those QSOs have not already been claimed for award credit. 73, ...

I live on an IOTA recognized island. I just today figured out that I can change my TQSL LOTW certificate to indicate my IOTA. I've submitted QSO information to LOTW that lacked that IOTA information. + When DXKeeper directs TQSL to submit one or more QSOs to LoTW, it specifies your LoTW Callsign Certificate, and your LoTW Station Location. + A Callsign Certificate specifies your DXCC entity, but does not specify your IOTA tag or any other geographic location information. + A Station Location specifies the details of your geographic location - including your IOTA tag. + To update the QSOs made from your island to reflect your IOTA tag, 1. Update the LoTW Station Location you've been using to specify your IOTA tag, as described here: https://lotw.arrl.org/lotw-help/stnloc/#Modify 2. In the TQSL panel at the bottom of the "QSL Configuration" window's LoTW tab, 2a. set the "station location" selector to the name of the "Station Location" you updated in step 1 above 2b. set the "station callsign" to the callsign you used over the air when making QSOs from of the "Station Location" you updated in step 1 above 3. On the "my QTHs" tab of DXKeeper's Main window, 3a. select the "my QTH" you've been using to identify QSOs made from your island 3b. confirm that the LoTW selector in this "my QTH" specifies the name of the "Station Location" you updated in step 1 above; if not, select the correct "Station Location" and then click the Save button below the "Find myQTH ID" panel 3c. click the Filter button (to the right of the VCR-like controls) to filter the Log Page Display to contain all QSOs whose "myQTHID" item selects the current "my QTH". 4. Select the Main window's "Log QSOs" tab, and inspect the Log Page Display; confirm that it contains all of the QSOs made from your island, and no QSOs made from any other location 5. On the Main window's QSL tab, 5a. set the "QSL Via" panel to LoTW 5b. click the "Add All" button; this will populate the QSL Queue with all of the QSO present in the Log Page Display 5c. click the "Update to LoTW" button 5d. even though they've already been submitted to LoTW, QSL should accept these QSOs because they contain new information: your IOTA tag; however, if TQSL refuses to accept these QSO because they've were previously submitted to LoTW, then 5.d.1 on the "QSL Configuration" window's LoTW tab, check the "Permit uploading of QSOs already uploaded to LoTW" box 5.d.2 repeat step 5.c above 73, Dave, AA6YQ you've submitted to LoTW Is there a way I can ask DxKeeper to update my LOTW QSOs (for a particular certificate) so that others may see my IOTA number in their LOTW QSO?
