I recently updated my LoTW for both 9V1GO and G4VGO. Only 240+ hits for
7,900 QSO's for G4VGO, and thirty or so hits for 9V1GO (2K Q's uploaded).
Is anyone using this service? It makes contest QSLing easy, and saves the
direct QSL hassle if you are in a place nobody operates the lower bands (who
QSLs at least).

Anyway, if you worked 9V1GO, your card is in the server.

PS-Direct is OK also, turnaround is about three days when it gets here.

Yes Bob I am using it and have similar hit rate.

82,847 QSOs uploaded. (over dialup. I deserve an awardgrin)
3,494 QSLs. Including six for last night's 160m contest.

It does seem to be mostly a USA thing right now. I would hope that will
change when word spreads. I've seen it reported that authenticating a
non-USA license is a bit of a chore.

Uploaded my logs, 7400 QSO's and have 249 QSL's, sounds about average at
this point. As more folks upload the hit rate should climb.

Bob can answer that question for you, but since he's in a place
you need a card from, and he probably spends a lot of time on
the radio because people want cards from Singapore (or they just want
to give Bob a signal report, but that'd be a first), I'd suggest you
do the decent thing and send him a card direct, one way or the
other, and include some postage for your return card.

Bob shouldn't have to help pay for your QSL card collection........
