[Dxbase] Cannot find DXBase2005 Countys

Sun Mar 6 14:47:35 EST 2005

Jim,
There seems to be some misunderstanding about the county award process and 
how tracking for it is implemented in DXbase.
The only counties that you will see in DXbase are those that are sanctioned 
by the County Hunters Award. Those are listed on the county hunters web 
site. Their list does NOT match the US government assignment of counties.
Counties that no longer exist or which have been merged into some new county 
are not in DXbase since we are only tracking current counties based on the 
county hunter's list.
Although there may be some county names assigned for Alaska as far as postal 
zip codes go, the county hunter award does not recognize these. Instead, 
there are four geographic regions in Alaska and this substitutes for 
counties.
I suggest you visit the County Hunter's Web site and also review the County 
Hunter's Award program documentation for more information. What you seem to 
be looking for in DXbase is a match between the government assigned counties 
and our database listing. However, what is in DXbase is a match with the 
County Hunter Awards program instead.
Regards,
Tammy
