[DXBase] G/GD LoTW import going wrong

2004年2月10日 19:34:19 +0100

Yes, it was a special lighthouse operation from the Isle of Man, and the ADIF
DXCC-number assigned by LoTW was correct.
I was just assuming that DXBase would look (happily) at the number offered.
After all LoTW gives the number so that you know which country you have
confirmed.
It was no problem to correct it. The problem was to spot the problem in the
downloaded ADIF file.

| I'm pretty sure GB2 is correct for England or plain G as you put it.
| GD is common for Isle of Man.
| Could this have been a special callsign?
|| If it was, enter the call, and then select the proper GB prefix in the prefix
column.
| Hit enter, you will be asked if you wish to "Map GB2IOM to Isle of Man"?
| Say yes.
|| But are you sure it was Isle of Man and not just a coincidence with the
suffix?
