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).

I have, according 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></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:blue'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:blue'>It just doesn’t mean that much to me to have my current totals on Clublog.
