Hey guys,

For those of you who are adding your 1×1 call sign QSOs into LoTW, remember that after you receive the certificate for the 1×1 call, you’ll need to create a new location in the TQSL program for the 1×1 call. That’s how you enable the 1×1 call’s certificate to be used to sign .adi files. I did not make that clear when I wrote up my instructions, and I should have.

If you already happened to upload your QSOs to LoTW and inadvertently signed the .adi file with your home call’s certificate, have no fear. All that does I think is put those QSOs under the wrong call, which means they’ll never be QSL’d. To fix the problem you just need to add the location for the 1×1 call in the TQSL program, re-sign the .adi file with the new location you created (which will use the 1×1 call’s certificate), and upload it to LoTW.

If anyone encounters difficulty or would like me to write up a quick instruction on how to do that I’d be happy to help or put that together. You can post your question here or email me at ng1gATverizonDOTnet
