Hello,
I don't use LOTW for Satellite logging, however I logged quite a few contacts, thank you, during HRU, Sunday. I would like to upload the file to LoTW however I would like to know the exact header for the adi files so the SAT contacts will be properly added to LoTW and eQSL, thank you.

Pete, as I understand it, there are two important lines in the .adi file which must be included for LOTW to recognize it as a sat contact... examples are shown below: Propagation Mode: <PROP_MODE:3>SAT
Satellite Name: <SAT_NAME:4>AO-7
I've found that some logging software does _not_ have these two items available as "fill in" boxes, although I believe you can edit the .adi file manually to add these lines. See the link below for all the details. I hope I read your question correctly and this will be helpful to you. http://www.arrl.org/files/file/LoTW%2520Instructions/N5JB.pdf
