Well, it's not that easy...
You need to have (at least) all the "regular" QSO info. Then you need to have the following in your ADIF:
Examples:
<sat_name:5>AO-27 <prop_mode:3>SAT <band_rx:4>70CM
I have some (not all that many!) satellite QSO's confirmed on LOTW for the DXCC countries. I've been sending in my logs for about 5 years.

Boy, after playing with this on LOTW, we may need an 'owners manual'. I created a 'VUCC Satellite' account and uploaded my entire HRD Logbook:
Prior to the upload, I added a 'propagation' field to the log and did a bulk edit to add 'sat' to each FM contact in my log (you can choose another field to search, but since I don't log anything on FM other than the sats that works for me).
Uploaded the log to LOTW. Nothing shows under the 'VUCC Satellite' account. (note: when I created just a pure VUCC account, several contacts showed up as FM contacts)
So, Im guessing we need to find out which ADIF fields are necessary in a log upload to make the LOTW happy...
THAT is above my pay grade, so I hope to see some good answers from the group when I wake up tomorrow..

FYI.from LoTW site:
"Jan 13, 2011: VUCC award support is now live -- Under the Awards tab you will find a VUCC button. The VUCC http://www.arrl.org/vucc is ARRL's award recognizing VHF, UHF, and SHF work and counts Maidenhead grid squares."
Is this a good thing or ??? do we need to set up anything different in an HRD Logbook to make this work ?? questions, questions..
