The DXCC ID you refer to is not supported by any organization.  In other
words, no one has agreed to maintain the list for ADIF purposes.  Therefore,
we, like most logging software products do not support its use because an
unsupported list will produce more problems than solutions.  We do export
the prefix designation for those who want it.

Jack
