[Dxspider-support] LOTW "+"

[Ron Stordahl]

Lee VE7CC's AR-User program identifies LoTW users without the aid of the 
dx packet cluster.  Doing it in both places seems a bit redundant.  And 
his program can be used as a front end for a logging program telnet 
client as well.  Lee has also implemented a means that his program can 
update the data base with just a click.

While there are arguments in favor of implementing this in the dx packet 
cluster instead, such an implementation would have to include an 
automatic daily update of the LoTW info database to match what Lee has done.
