[Dx4win] WANTED: QSL manager data for DX4WIN.CTY

[Jim Reisert AD1C]

Hi Folks,

Well, now that the country database is settling down, it's time to work on 
the QSL manager database.

The current database has 6128 manager records. I'm sure we can do better!

I'm interested in your QSL manager database, but I prefer smaller, 
hand-maintained ones rather than massive 100K entry databases achieved by 
merging in every available database on the Internet.  The latter approach 
is sure to contain lots of errors.  I think DX4WIN should have a relatively 
small but mostly correct database, maybe on the order of 10,000 - 15,000 
manager records or so.

In order to extract the data that I need, go to the main DX4WIN menu, File 
-> Databases -> QSL managers. Now in the new window, go to File -> Export 
QSL Manager Data.  For a file name, use your own callsign, i.e. 
KK4HD.TXT.  Then click on the SAVE button, and send me that text file as an 
attachment.

I need to write a program to intelligently merge the data, so this may take 
a week or two to get right.

Thanks & 73 - Jim AD1C

p.s. I already noted about a dozen minor corrections in the DX4WIN.CTY 
Release #5, and two missing IOTA references. Keep those cards and letters 
coming!
