The ARRL's Logbook of the World (LoTW) online confirmation
system now supports CQ's WPX Award, and early activity levels suggest that the
combination will be very popular. WPX is the first non-ARRL award supported by
the system and the first step in eventually permitting hams to use LoTW credits
toward all CQ operating awards.
WPX accounts have been automatically created on the award
pages of LoTW participants, and instructions are posted on the Logbook of the
World website. Standard ARRL Logbook and CQ award fees apply. A timetable has
not yet been set for adding other CQ awards, or in what order they will be
added.
