John,
It is not hard, once you get it set up :) I have been doing it for some time now. I always start folks here:
http://www.arrl.org/files/file/LoTW%20Instructions/N5JB.pdf
The two fields you really need and don't already have are:
Propagation Mode: <PROP_MODE:3>SAT Satellite Name: <SAT_NAME:4>AO-7 (example)
I also like to add <BAND_RX:2>2M (example)
Adding the fields is done by clicking
Settings | UTC, QTH, Date Options|
Then you will want to change the title of a couple of "other" fields as follows:
SAT_NAME
PROP_MODE
I chose to name another
BAND_RX
Click Done
Next you will probably want to alter your display by clicking
Setting | Edit Fields Displayed, Position and Tab Order|
Arrange it so you like it.......
After this upload will do exactly what you want. LOTW is very picky make sure your Info is correct AO-51 works AO 51 will not!

Anyone help me figure out how to post a sat contact to LOTW from AcLOG; have spoken to both ARRL and AcLOG folks.... was like duh? ARRL is asking for fields that seem like duplicates to me, RX freq, RX Band....propagation mode, mode...and they are not available in AcLOG.
Any help appreciated. May just stick with cards.
