[Dx4win] Problems entering new country
Hi Everyone... First of all, Happy Holidays (whichever one(s) you and yours celebrate)!! Tried to enter St Barthelemy (FJ) into the countries database on DX4WIN (Ver 7.03.??) and ran into some problems. 1. Don't know the ITU zone (ought to, but don't)...but that's the easy one of the problems 2. Followed the directions from the manual for entering the new country and everything went as expected until I got to the part (middle of page 121 of the printed manual) where it says, Now switch from the 'Details' tab to the 'Mappings' tab. Go to the pull-down menu and select 'Mappings' and then 'Add.' Five fields shoud appear under the 'Mappings' tab Those five fields are there, but there is no labeling of them. Tried to more or less reset the whole thing by getting out of everything, going back and doing it all over, but no joy.I have not a clue why this happened...If you can help, PLEASE DO!!! I guess I'll have to wait until I get the answer on the first question before I'll know what happens after I get it!! 73, Karl, K1KO Virginia Beach

[Dx4win] adding FJ
I followed the process exactly to add FJ to the country database and Saved and Exit and it still does not appear in my country database. I am in the Expert Level. john
[Dx4win] Attempt to update
HELP! I have been trying for a hour to update the database. No matter what I do it will not accept the new information. I have been following the Help file step by step! It may be that FJ shows with FS in the country file. The FAQ file does not address the map input requirement. Version is 6.02 Dave, W5WP
[Dx4win] Saint Barthelemy Info
OK, I can't figure out how to add the new country. I read the help file and still can't get it right. Every time I add it, the mapping shows that FJ maps to 1AO. What the heck am I doing wrong?
