FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: January 24, 2012


ARRL & CQ Sign Agreement to Provide
ARRL?s Logbook of The World Support for CQ?s Awards

(Hicksville, NY and Newington, CT - Jan. 24, 2012) ? CQ Communications,
Inc. (CQ) and ARRL ? the national association for Amateur Radio, have
signed an agreement to begin providing support for CQ-sponsored
operating awards by the ARRL's Logbook of the World (LoTW) electronic
confirmation system.. The agreement was announced jointly today by ARRL
Chief Operating Officer Harold Kramer, WJ1B, and CQ Communications
President Richard Ross, K2MGA.

CQ's awards will be the first non-ARRL awards supported by LoTW and will
be phased in, beginning with the CQ WPX award. Additional CQ awards will
follow. The ARRL?s LoTW system, an interactive database recording
contacts between radio amateurs was created in 2003? and has been
adopted by 47,500 radio ?hams? worldwide.? It already has records of 400
million contacts and grows weekly.? The target date for beginning LoTW
support for WPX is April 1, 2012. Amateurs will be able to use LoTW logs
to generate lists of confirmed contacts to be submitted for WPX credit.
Standard LoTW credit fees and CQ award fees will apply.

ARRL Chief Executive Officer David Sumner, K1ZZ, observed that this step
gives radio amateurs throughout the world an inexpensive and convenient
means of gaining credits toward CQ?s popular operating awards. ?LoTW has
significantly increased interest and participation in the ARRL?s DXCC,
Worked All States and VUCC awards programs. We anticipate a similarly
positive response to the addition of the CQ WPX award. Amateurs will be
able to spend more time operating and less time chasing QSL cards.?

CQ President Richard Ross, K2MGA, said he is very pleased to be able to
move forward with Logbook support for CQ awards. "We have had excellent
results with electronic confirmations for several years," he said, "and
I am glad that we are now able to begin expanding that convenience to
those participants in our award programs who use Logbook of the World.
We look forward to a smooth launch for WPX, and to the expansion of LoTW
support to include the rest of our award programs as well."

ARRL (www.arrl.org) is the national association for Amateur Radio in the
United States and publisher of its membership journal QST. CQ
Communications, Inc. (www.cqcomm.com) is publisher of CQ Amateur Radio
and several other magazines.? There are currently over 700,000 Amateur
Radio licensees in the USA and approximately 2.5 million worldwide.

Još uvijek imam više DXCC nego WPX ??

Nisi ti nezbiljan. 
Pravo pitanje je sposobnost njihovog kompjutera.
Ipak treba obraditi 433 milijuna QSO-a tj. usporediti svakoga sa svakim.

Koliki bi to mogao biti posao, ne znam. Na to bi pitanje bolje mogao odgovoriti
netko od informatičara među nama. Pokušavam razmišljati koliko vremena treba
za provjeru moje kreditne kartice u dućanu kada nešto kupujem?
Ne vjerujem da postoji kreditna kartica sa 433 milijuna korisnika!

Upravo my point.

Glume strogoću s certifikatima za LOtW, a puste nekompletnu uslugu...
Takva stvar se pušta kad radi, a ne u fazi koja se još ne može zvati ni beta...

Da se ne vraćam na ex YU deleted country again.

Neozbiljni...

BTW, preko "ofrlje onog bezveze" eQSL se odavno može obaviti sve za CQ WPX... i radi...

[9A2JK]

Odlično!  Za WPX mogu koristiti i eQSL i LoTW. 
(u LoTW imam prefikse koje nemam u eQSL, npr. KH5).

Nisam baš ''aktivan'' u eQSL, pa nisam znao. TKS!

Meni ovo i dalje ne radi?

Jesam jedini ili nešto ne vidim?

[9A2EU]

Nisi jedini Dado. To još uopće ne radi jer na mojih 15028 QSL recorda na LotW-u imam samo 286 prefiksa. Smiješno zar ne!? Za klub (9A1HBC) situacija je još gora: od 29250 QSL recorda na LoTw-u imam samo 149 prefiksa.

Ma ljudi, je li to moguće? Da u LotW-u nešto ne funkcionira? Dajte, najte...

[9A3JB]

  e neka vam vaš dragi LoTW i slične fekalije!

Mike,
počni već jednom gledati u napredne stvari a ne cijeli život zaostajati ...
Nepopravljiv slučaj ...

Bez obzira što neki tipovi (u stvari, samo jedan) često (bolje rečeno, kad je južina ) mene spominju u kontekstu (ne)slanja QSL-ki, moram priznati da sam uložio golemi trud u dosadašnjem njihovom dizajniranju. Rezultate će primijetiti samo oni koji ih i skupljaju a manje oni kojima potvrda veze (pa i elektronska) služi samo za diplome. Diplome ne skupljam, a, od pristiglih QSL-ki odvojim lijepe i zanimljive i istaknem ih na vidljivo mjesto.

Zaključak: svatko u ovom hobiju nađe nešto što ga čini sretnim.

alo, ekipa, mutite vodu...

tnx, Zlatko, čekam Martina da krene s hvalospjevima :-)

čak ne mogu prokužit po kojem algoritmu računaju svima više DXCC nego WPX

valjda se procesor zove Abacus...slika je za one kaj ne znaju kaj je to...

[9A2JK]

tnx, Zlatko, čekam Martina da krene s hvalospjevima :-)
...

Od LoTW ne postoji bolji i jeftiniji način za osvajanje diploma! 
(Mislim na one diplome koje u radioamaterskom svijetu ''najviše vrijede'').
I WPX će ''doći na svoje''. Uostalom, kome se žuri, i dalje za WPX
može slati ''papir''. 

Zaključak: svatko u ovom hobiju nađe nešto što ga čini sretnim.
