[Dx-qsl] list of proper foreign country names

[Steven Wheatley KU9C]

Bill,

I think the IMM has a listing by country....I would bet that the 'country listing' would also be the country name...

For example, use Germany, Allemagne usually gets returned as the US post doesn't recognize that is for Germany
