There is no Virginia Beach County. It is The Isle of Wight. There was
a Virginia Beach County some 30 or 40 years ago.
JV Amherst County, VA USCA #463

Subject: [Dxbase] Trouble with the county field
I am trying to log a QSO with K4YFR who lives in the county of VIRGINIA
BEACH CITY, VA. I have verified that county from a number of sources.
Unfortunately it is not in the DXbase list of counties. That is no
problem I thought, I'll just enter it manually in the field. NO, it
won't let me. OK so I entered Virginia Beach City in the Counties data
base. Still no go. I can't even manually enter the correct county. What
can I do?

Yah, I guess HAMs in the "Independent Cities" in VA are not considered
to be in counties. That is odd because the VA WEB description you sent
me says that those cities have all of the courts and offices of a county
government and I am surprised that the county hunters group doesn't
therefore count them as counties. I just seems like if a HAM is in the
US there should be some corresponding county entity to put in my data base.
Thanks for the help Al.
