INTERESTING LOTW NOTE (Update). In last week's OPDX.727, we mentioned
that Brian, K3KO, recently downloaded a file containing all callsigns
listed in the "Logbook of The World" (LOTW), and ran it through WIN-EQF
to find out the number of countries that were available and missing in
the LoTW. He reported that there were 273 countries presently within
the LoTW. Since then, OPDX readers have provided updates to this list
and the count now is 281. The following countries are not available:
1A, 3CO, 3D2/C, 3XA, 3Y/B, 3Y/P, 4U1UN, 5A, 5N, 7O, 7P, 7X, 9J, 9Q,
