It would be nice to make uploading a two click procedure. Unless I've missed something, what I need to do to upload to LOTW is the following: I have to click on export and upload QWSLs to LOTW > the Upload QSOs to LoTW window pops up and I click on "export process and upload" > The ADIF export Options pops up and I click OK > The lotwqsos.adi opens up and I click on the upper right X to close the window > The TQSL window opens and I have to select a station location for Signing > I highlight my selection and click OK > The QSO date range window opens and I leave it blank and click on OK > A Windows IE opens and a pop-up saying Upload QSOs to LoTW and says "Upload Successful" I click OK > Now the window pops back saying "Mark exported log records as sent to LoTW? I click Yes > It tells me how many I click OK and exit the original Upload QSOs to LoTW window and I'm done

What would be better for me would be to select to upload, select the QTH option in TQSL window and then process the data and return to the main Logic screen without my having to click in all these different windows.

I can see how someone might want to make elective changes and see all the steps involved and make modifications during the submission but for what's likely the majority of people who only want to upload the same way every time, how about a check-off option on that first "Upload QSOs to LoTW" that allows you to bypass all the other steps except select the TQSL window which asks which station location for signing and when you click OK on that, it completes the submission and at the end you only have to click on acknowledgement that the submission was received and applied.
