[Dxbase] Re: Dxbase Multiple Call Signs and other call prefixes

Hi Tom;
You can switch between the registries before you boot DXbase without 
any problems. I have three registration files, one for my call and 
variations, dx-peditions etc and one for each of the two operators I 
handled QSL cards for and before I open DXBase I would choose the 
registration file to use and load it. As long as you stayed with 
callsigns in that registration file you could go from call to call 
closing DXBase database for one callsign and opening it again with a 
new callsign database.
So you could ask Jack to give you a registration file that covers 
both callsigns and then once loaded you can switch from log to log 
without reloading the registration file. This only works if your 
version of DXBase is the current version. There is no support or new 
registrations files available for out of date versions of DXBase.
