AW: [Dx4win] Country names and states

[Helmut Mayrhofer]

Hi all,

I think it`s worthless to discuss about. We do have the DXCC List maintained
and updated by the officials "ARRL".

April 2006 Edition                                  
Current Entities Total: 337

KH6,7#*         Hawaii          

And it would be wasting on time to think about.

I Agree with Dan KI6X . Just start with the DXCC List.

I guess anything else will only bring confusion to someone.

Are all the countries going to be changed to the native language?  The DXCC
List has Hawaii.  I think native cultures are great (bring on the beer,
bratwurst and lefse - no lutefisk please).  How about Deutschland and
Kongeriket Norge?

Of course thank you Jim for all the work on the lists.  I just think this is
extra work (and time spent) when you have an ARRL DXCC list to start with.

Two different parts of the database - I corrected the country name to the
official spelling but did not change the WAS database.

The state name will be "Hawai'i" in the next release.
