YOu should be ALL OK Phil --- you ALWAYS can go into the
CALL MAP table within DXbase and CHANGE it (if ever needed) ..

NO - there is NO Date Range asked of you -- you just say YES and it will MAP
the dummy qso's callsign and prefix to the CALL MAP table ...

If they ever re-use the CALLSIGN for a different Entity - then you will have to 
go into the CALL MAP table and manually CHANGE the mapping ..  But, so far on
these TO / TX callsigns -- I have NOT seen anything of re-use to a DIFFERENT
entity.
