I had received only 2 responces from my last post on this subject.  Both wanted 
to see additional reports.  One of these responces, it was suggested that the 
DATE - TIME - BAND - MODE - RST - STATE - COUNTY be listed alphabetically.  I 
agree, so thats make 3 people would like to see a report.  If I knew how to do 
this I would program a report and publish it.  I do not know why that some 
people out there oppose COUNTY HUNTING and any mention of it on this forum.

Please let your voice be heard here on the forum.  If anyone out there is 
interested in programming some thing for county hunting there are at least 3 
people interested.  Please,  stand up and be counted.  Do not be afraid of the 
past and being intimidated!

First of all, let me say that I'm a DXBase customer and user since back at 
version 3 or 4 of the DOS program.  It is all I use for DXing.  I don't 
think there is a better program out there for this.

I think it is great that folks are adding 'some' support for County Hunting 
in DXBase.  I think this will help the casual type who is not actively 
chasing counties but would like to track them.

That being said, I think there are other programs out there that are better 
suited for the Very Active county hunter.  I don't know that it is within 
the objectives of the DXBase authors to ever duplicate these highly 
specialized programs for which there is a limited audience appeal.

I've used a few of the specialized county huting programs in the past.  They 
do a better job at tracking one's progress and at handling the paperwork 
involved.  County Hunting is all they are designed to do.  I personally 
never wanted to mix my counting hunting with my DX chasing....each program 
is good at what it was designed to do and I did not want to 'muddy up' one 
database with the other.

Please no flames on this....this is just my humble opinion.  If anyone is 
thinking that I'm trying to intimidate them they are very mistaken.
