An excellent point and I’m curious if 50MHz is the band most likely to confirm a contact because of various sponsored awards?

Well after another day, I have no additional QSLs for the VHF contest. RTTY ops are the best for QSLing via LoTW and then just contesters in general. I am surprised though at the very small number for the VHF contesters.

Tom – I didn’t hear you on Sunday afternoon or I would have worked you!!

I also participated in the VHF contest. I received one QSL by mail and sent out two others to confirm
new grid squares. I usually try and check my LOTW and E-qsl once a week .
I agree I wish more people would use LOTW regularly, but being of the old school I still prefer to have a card in hand.

I use it but I don’t updated it as often as I should. My logging program does eqsl automatically, but I have to manually do LoTW
