Thanks Koen, I'll look at the link. I only found this site when we ran into
problems with something else and the spam we get showing from us is a big
problem. We have about 20 users on ltcconnection.com.

Hi,
It pretty much depends on your actual setup. I see you have one MX
record for ltcconnection.com, is it correct that you send mail only from
that server (which is the same as ltcconnection.com and
www.ltcconnection.com btw)??
If so, all you need is "v=spf1 a -all" (or "v=spf a ?all" for testing
purposes).
Are you the only one sending mail from that domain? If not,
does everyone use ltcconnection.com for outgoing smtp??
I think you might want to study
http://spf.pobox.com/mechanisms.html a
bit, so you know what you're actually publishing.
Koen
Ps: you also might want to put an spf record on any explicit subdomain
you have defined, for example I see there's a subdomain
mail.ltcconnection.com. You probably want to publish some spf record on
that domain too, or else spammers coudl still use
bla@mail.ltcconection.com for forging. www.ltcconection.com appears to
be a cname though, which means it will be protected with the spf record
published on ltcconnection.com.
