As you can read below (in an email from another list), someone asked what is 
the entity of a call. Richard,,K5NA, replied first that according dx4win, 
the right entity is....
I don't know if this answer is right or not. Ofcourse dx4win's database has 
mistakes. But this is the biggest advantage of dx4win, because of the great 
work Jim, AD1C, has done and contniue to do. Dx4win's database is considered 
as a standard, and not only from us, dx4win users. Other logging programs 
have features dx4win has not. I wish it will have (as an automated way to 
upload in lotw with the press of one button, for example). But the most 
important for a logging program is, first to keep your qsos safe and second 
says what dxcc entity really a call is. And these two things dx4win do very 
well or better thatn every other program i know. Thank you Jim and please 
Paul keep updating and doing better this wonderful program.
