Filtering by LoTW usage

[OH2BUA]

Hi,

I’m mainly collecting ‘band points’ in digital modes with stations who confirm by using LoTW.

In Hamalert there’s a trigger condition for QSL methods → LoTW.

But how it is… If I use that filter, do I possibly exclude the very new highly wanted pedition callsigns - who haven’t confirmed a single QSO yet - but who are likely to LoTW-confirm them all later in a huge bulk update?

Yes.

The list of users with LoTW QSL method is updated once a day from the CSV at https://lotw.arrl.org/lotw-user-activity.csv, considering all callsigns that have uploaded a log in the past 365 days.
