I don’t have an email, so tried to reach Tyler via Twitter. I have an unconfirmed QSO from PO-101 on 5/30 and I know AB0XE, who worked Tyler within seconds of me, is also missing a confirmation. No word back from Tyler as yet. With such a high volume of contacts, the rigors of travel, and a day job, what Tyler’s done is truly amazing. It’s surprising there aren’t more gaps. 73, RayKN2K

He has been extremely active on the birds and I can understand if there are many gaps in his confirming. I myself don't think I could do what he has done 73 JACK KC7MG Thanks for the comeback email...

If you worked him while roving, he logs as WL7T/P.

You are talking about the 31st as in a few days ago? I would say give it a week or two, then inquiry. If Tyler is doing another of his normal ( anyone else's, insane) roves it can take some time to get through all of those passes; a second time.
Going through the audio logs of roves is possibly the worst part of rovering. Reliving all of the poor operating skills displayed a second time is mentally draining, and at least for me blood pressure raising.

It took him about 3 weeks or longer to upload my QSOs from his Maine trip. A couple of weeks also from his 7 land rove, except for 1 QSO which was uploaded pretty quickly. I wouldn't expect them to be uploaded while he is still out roving, or even right after he gets home.

Generally, I wait for at least two weeks, sometimes longer, before getting in touch with anyone about an unconfirmed QSO. What was different this time is that Tyler tweeted that all contacts from the grids in question had been uploaded to LoTW. That was extemely fast turnaround. But then a handful of us found that our QSL was not there. In my case, I have a recording and, in any event, it’ll eventually get straightened out. I’m new to chasing grids. It’s an interesting aspect of the hobby, especially when the satellite passes used by the rover have some combination of short duration, low elevation, and/or low signal strength. It can be frustrating especially in a pile up. But whether I get that grid this time, next time, or never, I remind myself that it’s just one small aspect of a hobby. A hobby, not a job, not a measure of my self-worth, or of anything else. 73, RayKN2K

Be careful, grid hunting becomes addicting. As does rovering. ;D

Are y'all using the call lookup feature on the LoTW webpage to see when he last uploaded? It is in the main menu bar at the top IIRC.
When I rove I try not to upload any logs until I can upload them all that way people can check and see if I haven't uploaded since the rove so they can know it is impossible for them to have gotten a confirmation and they should wait until I have uploaded before asking me anything or assuming the contact may have been uploaded wrong.

I got bit by making an FT8 contact before getting to my weekend rover log. #lifehappens. Caught someone out, so the LoTW activity can be misleading.
Anyways, good conversation. There is no manual about a lot of this, and only something that comes with been-there-seen-that-done-that school of hard knocks!

You are talking about the 31st as in a few days ago? I would say give it a week or two, then inquiry. If Tyler is doing another of his normal ( anyone else's, insane) roves it can take some time to get through all of those passes; a second time.
Going through the audio logs of roves is possibly the worst part of rovering. Reliving all of the poor operating skills displayed a second time is mentally draining, and at least for me blood pressure raising.

If you worked him while roving, he logs as WL7T/P.

He has been extremely active on the birds and I can understand if there are many gaps in his confirming. I myself don't think I could do what he has done 73 JACK KC7MG Thanks for the comeback email...

I don’t have an email, so tried to reach Tyler via Twitter. I have an unconfirmed QSO from PO-101 on 5/30 and I know AB0XE, who worked Tyler within seconds of me, is also missing a confirmation. No word back from Tyler as yet. With such a high volume of contacts, the rigors of travel, and a day job, what Tyler’s done is truly amazing. It’s surprising there aren’t more gaps.
