For those of us who used to wait for months and years for QSL cards, LotW is wonderful, even with 11 day delays! But our electronic world has raised our expectations to “instant” service! You got it, Cliff. I remind folks of that all the time. I remember how we waited for those rare Russian cards coming via the bureau, hoping that UH8 and UI8 cards were in the pile. (hi) Opening a bureau shipment became a ceremony! 73, K5UR -----Original Message----- From: Cliff Ahrens <cliff.ahrens@gmail.com> To: 'G Widin' <gpwidin@comcast.net>; dale.wms1 <dale.wms1@frontier.com> Cc: arrl-odv <arrl-odv@reflector.arrl.org> Sent: Sat, Jan 5, 2013 10:56 am Subject: [arrl-odv:21392] Re: LoTW Before the Logbook Queue Status page started reporting zero queue size, the 12:56 UTC report today showed an approximate 25% drop in the bytes in the queue from the previous hour. If accurate, that could be great news about reducing the backlog. I uploaded my monthly LoTW TQ8 file (with no dupes) earlier this morning, and it has not been processed, so I suspect the zero queue size reporting is in error. It would be interesting to know if the routine maintenance yesterday included putting the new SSD drives online, or whether they are still in testing and configuration.
