This "sky is falling" approach doesn't help anyone.  I've spent the last year
and probably over 100 hours revising the country file.  I've had imputs from a
long list of people, many of whom I can't remember (see the bottom of my web
page).

My web page:

  http://www.ad1c.com/dx4win/

describes a procedure for identifying the differences.  Check your QSL cards. 
If there are real errors in the database, I am be more than happy to fix them.

I believe you have to be in "F9" mode (new QSO input) for the windows to
update. DX4WIN has always been this way.

There's also an extensive revision history of the country file changes:

  http://www.ad1c.com/dx4win/history.htm

It reflects a lot of painstaking research.  Please read it if you have
questions on your differences.

I don't recall mentioning anything about gravity and its impact upon the 
sky.  Just stating a fact.  I checked my log from my prior call sign of 
WL7M, and found that the totals don't match either:  311 (6.02) vs 305 
(6.03).  I did indicate that I would wait for things to stabilize, and I 
intend to.  No barbs intended.

It seems I'm being told that the database under 6.02 was apparently 
incorrect.  If so, then we all may have missed working a DXCC entity 
because we believed we had already worked them, according to DX4WIN?
