You can find the link to v1.13 of tQSL at with the link being on the right side. Many folks are still using v1.11 and v1.13 is required. Make sure you also upgrade your tQSL program. Here are some links to help explain the new HRD QSO status workflow and awards functionality: The newer award feature within HRD will show which various supported awards (DXCC, WAS, WAC, etc) have Verified contacts (paper or LoTW) that could be applied. ![]() Select LOTW Received in the Field drop-down and select Verified in the List drop-down. ![]() Highlight all records, right click and select Bulk Editor / Any Fields / Fields tab / Add Field. To update all the LoTW records marked as Yes from HRDU, specify a filter of LOTW Received Contains Y and that will show you all records that are matched QSLs in LoTW. If you used HRD Utilities to download from LoTW, all the LoTW QSL Received statuses will be set to Yes and those all need to be Bulk Edited to Verified in a one-time update. Here are some links to info on HRD & LoTW: HRDU still has many valuable feature/uses but it looks like the upload/download to LoTW can be handled within HRD natively now. HRD will set any download QSLs to the Verified status which means they are acceptable to submit as an award contact if needed. For paper QSL cards, you need to do that manually when the cards come in. ![]() Previously it was manual or you could, like I did, you use a terrific program from Stephen WD5EAE called Ham Radio Deluxe Utlities (HRDU). HRD now supports uploading/downloading of LoTW QSOs & QSLs within the program. Because automation is only available for a portion of the process, it takes time and effort even with all these tools, to get things tagged properly. HRD has recently been upgraded to support ham radio award tracking for awards such as DXCC, WAC (Worked All Continents) and WAS (Worked All States) and I wanted to start taking advantage of the new feature. I use N1MM for contesting and export the ADIF after a contest and import that ADIF into HRD and maintain all contacts there. HRD (Ham Radio Deluxe) is the everyday ham radio logging program I use. ![]()
