Dear group,

Dear Group,

My friend has been having a real problem getting ACLOG to upload his LOTW contacts.   His original software for LOTW was loaded by is now deceased

wife and he didn't have all the passwords.   He has received a new TSQL certificate from the ARRL and I am going to help him put that in next Sunday.  But there is a issue that still bugs me from troubleshooting his LOTW/ACLOG setup.   When we went to the LOTW upload/download page and clicked on the ALL CONTACTS NOT UPLOADED block.   ACLog would then build the file and go through the duplicate check and when it was all done  a block would show up asking for a passcode or pass phrase.   Where does that come from?  Is it something that is tied to the TSQL or is it something that ACLOG generates.   If it is something that is stored in ACLOG software somewhere, can it be changed?   This is the item that is messing us up because he has no idea what passcode or pass phrase it is looking for and

we can't ask the person who installed the software what it was.    My friend has been blaming ARRL TSQL LOTW.  But after some time I am not sure that PASSCODE/PASS PHRASE is part of the LOTW SETUP but MAYBE a ACLOG function.

So this is why I am asking this question.   I am trying to understand the interconnect between these two systems so I can intelligently trouble shoot their interconnect.

Information about this Passcode /passphrase interface would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Neighbor.

That message is a TQSL message.  The certificate is password protected.  The directions to unlock it is on the ARRL web site, here:

https://lotw.arrl.org/lotw-help/removecertificatepassword/?lang=en

In the process it will ask you for the certificate password, so if you don’t have that you may be lost.  Good luck Dave.

I’m on night shift the next 4 days.  Night shift runs the grid out of the backup control room, in downtown.  So I won’t be in range of your repeater and I won’t wake you with the usually 0500 Saturday Morning greeting. I’ll be passing through your area in the JEEP soon, perhaps next week if our trailer is ready.  I’ll call as I drive through, or you can always track me as KD5KC-9 with full messaging.

Stay safe and well Dave!

The canyons are calling, colorful and deep.  But I have promises to keep.
