Dave, With regards to FULL Callsigns like VP8BKF and VP8BF -- simply ADD those callsigns to the CALL MAP table .. this is the reason why the CALL MAP table is there - so that you can MAP a FULL Callsign to a "different" PFX and zone(s).
You can select the proper information in the CALL MAP table - when you add those two callsigns.. The CALL MAP table is the first one looked at when trying to determine the entity/zone(s) -- once the FULL call is inserted/added -- and you type-in the FULL callsign(s) in your logbook - they will be populated correctly. 73 Joe wa6axe Dave Chasey wrote: > > In my DXB2005 prefix database there exists an alias map that maps VP8B to > VP8G resulting in the currently active VP8BKF and VP8BF being incorrectly > shown to be South Georgia. > > The ARRL DXCC list doesn't show anything past VP8 for the Falklands, South > Georgia, South Orkney, South Sandwich, or South Shetland.

I have noticed on several occasions that the date entered into the log is wrong. I have the PC clock set for local time. For example a QSO made on 2/13 at 0300z will be logged as 2/12 at 0300z (2/12 2200z local)Restarting DXB will clear up this error and QSOs will be logged at the correct date and time. Has anyone else experienced this? If so is there a fix? Thanks in advance. 73 Gregg From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Feb 13 09:57:17 2005 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Bob Main) Date: Sun Feb 13 10:07:08 2005 Subject: [Dxbase] Summary Window Question Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I was going through the log just looking back around late 80's-late 90's (very few contacts during that time so it was all within about 3 lines of each other. Anyway, I worked a BY 4RB in the late 80's (which I can't seem to get a card for, unfortunately) and noticed later that the Summary window showed that station in the call and a "W" for 20 mtrs. I was wondering when I work it so I clicked on the "W", which shows any contacts to that country on that band, and got nothing. So then I clicked on the binoculors, which should show all contacts to that country, and still got nothing. Seems odd. Anybody seen that before? Do I need to re-initlize the database? Have not closed it down other than normally lately.

After a while it will work again. I have not figured out the sequence to get working again. While it is not working I will click on the binoculars and enter the prefix for the country and search that way but it gives so many contacts that this is a hard way to find a QSO.
