Thu Jun 9 19:34:57 EDT 2011

ALL:
My apologies to ALL!! And especially to Steve (N4JQQ) and Tony (KD4K) ..
There WERE Russian Prefixes updates from months ago -- that were
disseminated and those were included in the most recent refdata.mdb
file that is available -- but, after re-reading and re-reading Steve's original
email -- There ARE some new items in the email that will need attention.
There ARE some of the items that are already included -- but, I WILL
look thru the updates in Steve's email and will generate another UPDATE
to my 
Refdata/Logbook MDB Analyzer & Updater Ver 4.30 
This MAY take a little bit of time -- but, I will try to get it out to the
DXbase2007 users ASAP!!
AGN to ALL!! Apologies from Joe!
