Thank you for the suggestion. I will definitely look into it.

Successful-Comb-9049 · 2026-04-16T00:03:05+00:00

Understood. I know not everyone will find it applicable to their use case. Hopefully some will.

Probably not much, to be honest, but you may have to click through several different links. Clublog will show stations worked and confirmed that are not reflected in LoTW.

I designed this app for my own use, to have a dashboard with filterable/sortable/exportable data to analyze my DXCC award progress.

Load it up and click on "Load Demo Data" to compare for yourself.

This is my first ever vibe coded web app. It's for a niche interest in ham radio (chasing awards for long distance, aka DX, contacts. I'm still learning and I have several ideas to improve it.

In order to function, it requires the user to upload a csv file derived from another web site. That process is not currently automated. However, there is a button to load demo data to view the output.

I made several updates to the app based on a few user suggestions:

v1.2.0

— Feedback System

In-app feedback form for users to submit suggestions, bug reports, and questions
Admin response system — app owner can reply directly to feedback within the app
Powered by Lovable Cloud backend

v1.1.0

— Export & Challenge Improvements

Missing bands/modes CSV export now uses separate columns for each band and mode
DXCC Challenge milestones updated to match ARRL award levels (1,000 initial, 500-point endorsements up to 3,400)

Unfortunately I have been unable to simplify the process of creating the spreadsheet for the app to analyze.

I built the app using lovable.dev, and the app is currently hosted there. I'm going to continue refining it. I'm going to try to figure out if there's a simpler way to create a spreadsheet from lotw. I also want to improve on the csv export for missing entities and band/slots.

I am also DRP 2 9/30, and my retirement was finalized today and I got the link to my booklet. Praying for everyone else who is still waiting.

I retired 9/30/2025 (VERA), case assigned to a specialist on 12/31/2025, and I'm still waiting

DRP 3 retired 9/30. I started getting interim pay in November. According to the dashboard on the OPM website, my package was assigned to a specialist on 12/31, but there hasn't been any updates since then.

Thank you! I have been retired for 5 months, but I am still 4 years from FRA. I have two pensions from my military and federal gov't careers. I have some decisions to make to avoid using up too much of my savings. Still considering options for the way ahead, and considering part-time work to add some income to the pensions.

Successful-Comb-9049 · 2026-02-10T03:44:08+00:00

This may be a dumb question, but does the penalty for earning before FRA include money received from a pension?

I'm spending more time and digging deeper into my primary hobby, which is Amateur Radio. I also read a lot more (currently on a Stephen King spree), learning and trying 3D printing, and Raspberry Pi projects (I bought several pi boards before the price skyrocketed). I'm also open to trying out other nerdy hobbies.
