Hello, I've already received some good feedback from people. I imported a few new .CTY files into this database, and apparently some new errors cropped up. Don't worry, just keep reporting what you find and I'll put out a cleanup pass as soon as I can (goal is within next two weeks).
Remember, if you want to check for errors, copy the DX4WIN.OLD file from the ZIP archive into your SAVE directory as DX4WIN.CTY. Otherwise, there will be a lot of new "errors" because some prefixes are now different. Also remember that the new prefixes match the ARRL DXCC Award Credits Listing which is the printout you receive back from the ARRL after a DXCC submission. These prefixes don't necessarily match the ARRL DXCC List at http://www.arrl.org/awards/dxcc/, for example that list shows United States as 'K' but the award credits listing has it under 'W'. The point was to make it easier to cross-check the award credits listing against the DX4WIN listing. I will send mail to the ARRL DXCC desk to see if they can make their own lists consistent! I really need to take a break from this but it keeps coming back to haunt me! 73 - Jim AD1C At 07:48 PM 8/29/2003, Jim Reisert AD1C wrote: >DX4WIN.CTY release #4 is ready for download.
