[Dxbase] LU1Z mapped wrong

Tue Dec 20 12:46:43 EST 2005

Bob,
When it comes to Antarctica Bases/Station, such as LU1ZD,
the entry in the Alias Map is all ok!! LU1ZA is truely VP8O
entity and that is alphabetically the first one..
In these cases, it is MUCH better to leave the Alias Map
alone - and strictly make the FULL CALLSIGN entries into
the Call Map table ...
Here are the Call Map entries (at least some of them for
Argentine Antarctica Stations:
LU1ZA - VP8O
LU1ZB - KC4
LU1ZC - VP8H
LU1ZD - KC4
LU1ZI - VP8H
LU1ZG - KC4
LU1ZV - KC4
LU2ZD - KC4
LU4ZS - KC4
