If your fried chicken is soggy, it is most likely due to the cooling process. Be sure to let your fried chicken cool on a wire rack and not directly on paper towels. The paper towels will absorb some of the oil but not all of it and if your fried chicken is sitting in that, it will steam and become oily & soggy. After all the hard work of making perfectly crispy fried chicken, be sure to just cool them correctly to keep their crispiness.
