I have spent countless hours working on the DX4WIN.CTY file and I need to 
take a break!  I got contributions of data and analysis from over 35 people:

   DL1AMQ ES5TV GM3POI I0MWI K0CA K1NU K2CIB K2TK K3CT K3WC K4NR K6MMC
   K7NO K9EL K9RB N1RJ N2VW N2WK N3RD N3SL N4IG N4ZR NR3Y OH6NIO ON4AOI
   PY2YP SM0LZT SM4WGB W0DJC W0QE W2UP W4MYA W5FL W8DN W8TTS WD0DAN

Here are some statistics:

DX4W602 database:

	2931 prefix mappings
	 841 callsign mappings

New database:

	3874 prefix mappings
	2360 callsign mappings.

I did extensive revisions in the prefix mappings of the former-USSR 
callsigns.  I'm sure I made some mistakes.

If you wish to try the new database (and I do encourage you to do so), 
please visit this web site for download and installation instructions:

I would appreciate if some folks could follow the instructions to see if 
there are any mappings that are incorrect.  Please check your QSL cards 
first to see if they are real differences or not.  The more people help 
out, the better this database will be.

Thanks & 73 - Jim AD1C
