My scheduled dates are: 1 March 1 June 1 September 1 December These dates seem reasonable to me. 1 March gets you through the two ARRL DX contests, 1 June gets you through the CQ WPX contests, and 1 December gets you through the CQWW DX contests. I am still happy to take differences from your own log. Please go to: http://www.ad1c.com/dx4win/ and follow the "Country File" link at the top. Remember that merging your old country database with the new one may bring back old errors. It's better to use the new database, letting me know of any needed changes. This way everyone benefits, and we're not chasing down old problems. 73 - Jim AD1C ===== Jim Reisert AD1C, 7 Charlemont Court, North Chelmsford, MA 01863 USA +978-251-9933, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, http://www.ad1c.com PGP Fingerprint: D8E2 3D78 339F A7F1 8C13 1193 B5D1 4FB6 79D1 70DC From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue May 25 15:36:23 2004 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (L. Sica) Date: Tue May 25 15:40:24 2004 Subject: [Dx4win] New Country List Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Just imported the new country list.. superb! After careful studying of the "discrepencies", I found out that most of the time the list was correct and my old log was wrong. It even found a Mt. Athos QSO on 20 meters! The problems I did find fell mostly into 2 categories, both related to Soviet/Russian callsigns. 1) UA9S and UA9W calls are in Zone 16. The list currently has them going into Zone 17. Both DXAtlas and your own list at http://www.ad1c.com/HamRadio/russia_a.htm verify Zone 16 is correct. 2) The list currently tries to resolve Soviet-era Special Event Callsigns with an "E" prefix on a call by call basis. But they can be deciphered like this: Take the call EO9ACS. The "republic"/oblast can be figured out by taking the first letter after the prefix (the "A"), followiing it by the number in the prefix (the "9"), and then by the second letter after the prefix. This gives you A9C. Look up UA9C in an old Soviet prefix list, and you get Asiatic Russia and the proper Oblast/Region. Other examples: EK8HWT is H8W, and UH8W was Turkmenistan EU0G is UG0, which was Armenia. EO2QGL is UQ2G, which was Latvia EO5BIM is UB5I, which was Ukraine
