And not possible on LoTW - one of the reasons I will not use it.

I'm sorry to hear that you won't use LOTW -- whatever your objections (and this one is VERY picky) -- LOTW saves everyone who needs a DX QSL from you an average of $3.50 per card, a dollar figure that is rising rapidly with increasing postal rates around the world. And LOTW saves everyone who uses it a LOT of TIME.

I have a pretty rigid policy -- I will not respond with a paper card from a station who does not put his log on LOTW, simply because I view him as selfish. And when I am casually contesting (and ALL DX contests are casual to someone who operates from W6), I am far less likely to work a station who doesn't use LOTW.
