[Dxbase] Heads-up on upcoming DXped as TW0F (ambiguous prefix) - Joe wa6axe‏‏‏

 ALL:
Just a heads-up about a callsign that is in the AMBIGUOUS category for Prefixes ...
Just saw that the callsign TW0F will be used from Futuna island (IOTA
 OC-118) 
starting around/after 28 January 2012. This callsign will default to France (F) because of the
Alias Map table mapping - and, because this is one of those Ambiguous prefixes.

 This callsign is not currently MAPPED in the CALLMAP table -- so, if you want, 
 simply make a dummy QSO with this callsign and change the PREFIX column
 of your logbook mdb file to FW and then when the pop-up asks you if you want
 to save this TW0F mapped to FW -- say YES/OK ---- Then delete that dummy QSO ..

 The CALLMAP table will now be updated in advance so that if you work this
 station -- it will have the correct PREFIX in your logbook QSO window ...

 Just FYI -- Tnx Ted (K8NA) for the info.
