I'll take a couple of easy ones: For the KG4 calls that aren't in Gitmo,
the K5K call that isn't US, and the "Hawaii" calls that are in KY & FL (my
personal favorite is the "Alaska" call in Louisiana): If you pull up those
calls, in the Prefix field, just put in the correct "real" prefix. For
example, for the KG4xxx calls, put in "K", for K5K put in KH5K, etc.
You can also fix those when entering by preceding (or following) the call
with the correct Prefix, though I believe that if you put it in the Prefix
field, it will be "remembered" for future uses of that callsign.
One more I'll take a crack at: Regarding the buro cards, you do have to
search, but the handy-dandy F2 key makes things much easier. If you go into
File->Preferences, select the F2 Key tab. You can set the F2 key to mark
the card as confirmed AND flag it for printing, and even whether to go
direct, buro, etc.
One handy tip someone told me is to make a "scratch" copy of your database,
and play around with the functions on that one. If you mess something up,
you can go back to the original log, save yourself another copy, and move
forward from there.
Good luck!
