May I suggest to anyone in this situation to try joining "Clublog"
www.clublog.org While its original purpose was a multi-band DXCC ladder for a club it has a very good set of callsign checking algorithms and exceptions to the "rules" Once you register you can upload your plain ADIF log You will receive back a list of "exceptions", calls which do not match the logged country etc. It is worth joining just for that, plus the fun element of seeing your score on a worldwide basis The web site also links to their reflector which is a mine of information and the route o report new exceptions Well worth a try in my opinion FWIW 73 Fred G4BWP - A65BD ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim WA9YSD" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, January 30, 2010 6:07 PM Subject: Re: [Dxbase] guys I need some help here > > I have an extreme lack of trust with most programs because of the country > data base and call sign prefix confusion cause updates from time to time > are not current cause of me not entering them.
