Hi All

I public declare that was my fault. The story:
It all happened more than a year ago, when I was 
sorting a pack of cards received from buro. 
Because I'm a county hunter, I update the county
field of all my QSO's with the info on the cards.
When I was doing that for K6LL, I input CA on 
state field, and pressed F1 to input is county YUMA. 
Well, I couldn't find it. But I found YUBA.
So, I thought that was a typo mistake and reported 
the "bug" to author. He, in good faith, acepted the 
correction and did it on next version. Case closed.
 
Only after I seen the mails mentioning this mistake, 
I recall what happened and checked again the card. 
Well, it turns out K6LL QTH it's in Arizona (not CA)
and that explains it all. (What I still can't explain it's
how I missed state info, also printed in the card!!!)
Anyway I apologise for all the trouble.
I promise I will be more carefull next time I report
something. I've learned my lesson.

Now, if DX4WIN could automaticaly update my full 
log State and County fields getting the info from a 
CD-ROM, that would be wonderfull. ;o)

Season Greetings to all
