[Dx4win] Missing DXCC Confirms with 604

Alan,

I have seen many logs from different logging programs, and the assigned prefixes are all
over the place. Some of them let you define bogus prefixes as you go. Other assign France
to Germany etc etc. With DX4WIN you have at least a change to do it right. If you find
discrepancies between your prefixes and the one assigned by the country database,
just send the differences to Jim.

Also, believe it or not, a number of users switched to DX4WIN just for this feature.

73, Paul

It would be MUCH more sensible if the program saved the DXCC country for each QSO in the log file itself, and just used the reference file  to give you a suggestion as to where a new QSO fits, something like the "super check partial" files, or even the country reference files, in a contest logging program. Having to review your Q's to see if the country reference has gotten screwed up every time you upgrade the program is an incredible pain in the butt. This is the biggest single complaint I have about DX4Win, and if I ever decide to move to a different program, it will be for this reason.
