Ok Dima. Interesting, I have in my DX4WIN, currently 63,103 QSO and with US stations I have exactly 31,129 (almost half are with US stations) I have observed that the same station has worked on 2 different counties, I do not know how this would solve this the database. I have manually entered the counties, according to the QSL and LoTW card, but I have many, that I have worked and not being confirmed, the field appears on white. Greetings. EA8AM
