Re: [Dx4win] IOTA Database

2012-03-05 Thread Dick Flanagan
Well, that would seem to make IOTA logging a bit problematic with not 
only duplicate names, but duplicate prefectures!?  (Check out the AS117 
islands with the name of "O")  I think I will stick with states and 
countries.  :)

Thanks, Jim.

What you see matches what's on the IOTA web site:

http://www.rsgbiota.org/info/search.php?q=AS117

So there appears to be nothing wrong.  The names overlap, but they are
from different prefectures. It does seem that the RSGB could do
something a little better with this one.

[Dx4win] IOTA Database

2012-03-05 Thread Dick Flanagan
I don't participate in the IOTA program, but I try to keep my log 
current with IOTA entries in case I am ever so inclined.

I was logging a recent BURO QSL that specified AS117 and noted what 
appeared to be corrupt IOTA Island names.  I counted roughly 150 names 
with many duplications.  Do I have a corrupt IOTA file or is there a 
more widespread problem with AS117?

I was speechless when Chris presented the award to me last night.  It
was truly something I never expected in a million years, especially
considering all the contesters gathered at Tim's house who have given
back so much to the sport.

>From the bottom of my heart, Danke schön!
