[Dx4win] Updated databases not updated

[Art - W6KY]

Garry,

N & S Cook Islands in ClubLog are bizarre in some cases. Michael
does not have these 'all' up to date of North vs South. Many will
default to South. If you have the QSL he will update ClubLog to
match. I had several islands in 1989-1995 time frame that ClubLog
would default to the wrong DXCC. Your DX4WIN is probably
100% correct. . . I kinda take ClubLog with a grain except to
check current logs of DXpeditions....Especially when they are out
there and I can see my QSO's real time... I just trust DX4WIN
and my 'expert' entry ability. :)

As to the IOTA, I am at 8.05.  My drop down works fine as
long as you have a valid IOTA # entered in the IOTA window.
If your's still doesn't, use Jim's updater program..

73, Art  W6KY

Subject: [Dx4win] Updated databases not updated

Yesteday, I upload 57000 QSO's to Clublog and received back a report 
that included several hundred QSO's deemed invalid, wrong counter (e.g. 
N. Cook instead of S. Cook or vice versa, ST0R listed as Sudan). It took 
all evening to correct them. Today I again uploaded the 57000 QSO's, 
expecting to get back at most a short list of errors. Instead, every 
prior error was still there!

I checked my databases and reports and found that my DXCC database is 
apparently not up to date, despite the assurances of dxupd.exe ver. 4.6 
that I have the latest files. My DXCC summary says there are 340 current 
counters--ST0 is not there--explaining the non-presence of Southern 
Sudan. This is in addition to my IOTA islands window being unpopulated. 
This all was fine a few days ago.

Anyone have a clue as to what is happening here and how to fix it?

Garry, NI6T
