This may have been covered before I can't find it in the archives.

How are you folks handling Yugoslavia QSOs?  DXBase still shows YU, YT, YZ
as Yugoslavia but the ARRL DXCC list says they are for Serbia-Montenegro.

I can't get a handle on when this change was made.  Feb 4, 2003 seems to be
the date that this "loose confederation" came into existance, but I dunno...

Do we need to do and "old prefix"- "new prefix" thing with an old prefix
date or what?

Thanks,


Wes

I turned on the cluster today to search for some new band-modes.  It flagged 
YU/OM2RC/P as a new band-mode.  I was puzzled, as I have YU confirmed or worked 
many times.  Upon closer examination, DxBase said it was Federal Republic of 
Germany, or prefix Y (which is deleted).  So why did it not see the U of the 
YU?  I typed the call into the QSO field and it again came up with FRG.   Did 
the prefix search stop on the first letter?  Okay, so I tried this.  I typed in 
YA/K1EP into the QSO field, fine, prefix is YA.  I typed YI/K1EP into the QSO 
field, fine, prefix is YI.  Not that I was intending to go to either place 
soon.  But when I type YU/K1EP into the QSO field, I end up with Y.
