I wanted to let you know why the listing was made
the way it looks -- alphabetically by DXbase Entity/PFX!

When you look at the hardcopy printout that comes from or
used to come from the ARRL, and then you look at the ARRL
LoTW website's listing of your awardcredits at the ARRL --
each of the ARRL reports DO NOT list the PFX's/Entities
in the SAME order!! The hardcopy has the DELETED entities
ALL at the end of the report - yet the LoTW version has
the DELETED entities intermingled with the current ones.
So, since there is NO standardization
within the ARRL's own reports, I opted to let the
report (that I just made) come out with the DXbase PFX's/Entities
listed alphabetically -- according to the way that DXbase has
the PFX listed in it's database.

Therefore, some of the lines on the listing "will have
the CORRECT info on that line" -- but, may not be listed in
the exact order of your arrl report ... so, a one-by-one
looking down the listing for 90% of the entries will be good -
but the other roughly 10% will not be in the same row-order.

It would sure be nice if the arrl itself could standardize their
own reports.


If the report is not useful to you (as is) - pse simply ignore
it - or, delete it.  Hopefully, some users will find it helpful.
