If you do nothing else, the changes will only affect newly-logged QSOs (in both the past and the future). QSOs you have already logged will be unaffected *unless* you use the Check IOTAs multiple QSO operation. This performs a "check and change" operation using the data in the current country file. You always have the option to discard the suggested changes (by not saving them) and to reload your original log unchanged. All I am trying to do is a) help people to fill in and/or correct IOTAs currently in their logbook, and b) identify mistakes in the country file. There is no obligation to "Check IOTAs" but you may want to do it out of curiosity. Adding IOTA callsigns to the country file is a manual, time-consuming process and is prone to human error. All I'm asking for is a little help with this, which ultimately benefits all users. There is no requirement. 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim Reisert AD1C, <jjreis...@alum.mit.edu>, https://www.ad1c.us <http://www.ad1c.us> ______________________________________________________________ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:DX4WIN@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
