As far as the main issue goes-- single QSO uploads-- I have heard rumors that the principal offender as far as uploading one at a time goes is Ham Radio Deluxe.  That's a rumor, I emphasize.

Can anyone confirm or deny it?   If true, can it be configured to batch them up?

If this is true and it isn't configurable to something more reasonable,  those of us who own the product and are tired of the delays might start talking to the vendor about it.

Or any other vendor with the same behavior.

If you manually initiate LOTW uploads,  your logging system isn't the problem or at least can be configured to not be the problem.

If your product automatically uploads,  then whether it is an offender lies in the details of how often it uploads.

The easiest implementation of automatic uploads is one at a time.

I use Log4OM and it is set to upload when I shut it down,

I like that option, I think Logger32 has an add one which uploads after each QSO,

Unable to upload since about an hour ago. Is it only my issue, or others see it, too?

Hi Marvin

I had it last night TQSL failed to upload when I shut my log down,

This morning I manually uploaded the missing Q's but had to do it twice before the worked,

then again this evening it failed to load when I shut the log down, I havn't tried manually,

I wonder has the slowness since the holidays finally amounted to a problem,

I use HRD, it definitely does not do single LOTW uploads.

I've used HRD for about 15 years. I think it can be set for uploading each QSO as logged, but I have never done that. For LotW especially, I did not want to connect to the server for every QSO due to the risk of not connecting and the QSO upload lost. I will select a batch of QSO to upload to LotW after a fruitful session on air, after a couple of days or maybe a week if I have not been very active.
My MO is to upload batches of QSO to LotW, QRZ.com and eQSL periodically as above, and ClubLog and HRDlog.net as I log each QSO (that does not seem to cause any problems).
LotW is my main priority, the others are a courtesy and multiple logbook backups.
