[Logic] List of Valid Values: DXCC problem

Mon, 1 Apr 2002 16:22:52 -0400

It is a bit of a conundrum alright Tony, I will have to weigh the pros and
cons and decide what to do or not to do. I normally use the RAC CD, but not
to fill in the name and QTH in the log, only to find addresses. It would,
however, be interesting to see the Web Callbook working and one really
should be using all of the features in the program, only too bad that the
prefix table is not right up to date, that is a rather large task however. I
will probably end up re-installing LOGic 6 after I get the rest of the small
problems cleared up. I did spend hours in the past straightening up the
various tables to get them up to date in order to properly reflect what I
had earlier logged in the log.
