Getting more eQSLs » Why (some) hams don't use eQSL Aug 27, 2008 09:16 PM (Total replies: 10)

The security of using LOTW is ridiculous. Honestly, I like the chance to win an award at my leisure. eQSL does that. If it takes a great while, I just don't care.


Also, the fact that my Ham Radio Deluxe logging program uploads the QSO automatically to eQSL. This is great. Every great once in a while I check my standings. It does drag on. Still the ease is what I prefer over LOTW.

To me ham radio should be fun and easy. That's eQSL, not LOTW.

The other thing that I do is use MAPPER in my logging program (HRD) and it pin points about 80% of contacts like a push pin. If I feel the need to brag (rarely anyone in my shack but me) I can pull up the MAPPER display and it shows most of my contacts all around the globe. I feel most visitors couldn't care less about a DXCC on the wall. Really. That's why I don't. 73
