w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Seychelles</st1:place></st1:country-region>. I
had never heard of Aldabra so I started investigating and sure enough, I found
that my contact should count for Aldabra which is now a deleted entity (only
contacts made June 28, 1976 or before count). But I couldn’t find the card even
though my log showed I had received one.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

to ARRL LoTW totals, 335 of the current 340 DXCC entities confirmed. Clublog
shows me as having about 280 something. The entities confirmed but not listed
were added to my ARRL records from paper QSL cards submitted to the DXCC desk
long before LoTW existed. At the time they were submitted ARRL did not include
band and mode information in the QSO record data. So, the QSO data for those
entities is not included when I download my stats from LoTW if I wanted to send
them to Clublog.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Joining <a href="http://clublog.org">http://clublog.org</a> is FREE<br>
<br>
Then just download your current DXCC stats from LOTW and then upload that adif
file to clublog<br>
unless you are embarrassed by those stats and there is no reason for that as
well all start some where in our DXCC chase<br>
<br>
And becoming a member of the LCC clublog group is a simple email request <br>
(which for LCC members will be approved very quickly)<br>
