Thanks for all the info.

I have 373 and still need Rocket Man (P5), which may entail a long wait.

I am just concentrating on band-countries right now.

The latest thoughts from the LOTW e-mail list appear to be that ARRL's LOTW
is only used by about 25% of all DXers world-wide.  Also, DXCC is falling
way down on the "interest" scale.  Hard to believe, but these appear to be
the facts.

ARRL needs to really work hard at revamping LOTW.  I have been corresponding
with AA6YQ (LOTW developer-type) and here were our parting words last night:

Me: Rick (ARRL President) is certainly a quality DXer so maybe he will be
able to help make some changes.

AA6YQ: The removal of all developers from LoTW in 2018 was done on his
watch.
