[Dx4win] DX spotting using CCUser

[Mike Rhodes]

I am not a CCUser user so afraid I cannot address that issue.

However, you might take note of the fact that US callsign numbers have 
little if any bearing on where the station is located any more. Since 
hams are no longer required to change their callsign to the district 
they live in no required to sign portable and can apply for a vanity 
call with most any number they desire, it is pretty much a crap shoot 
trying to use a callsign to identify an area of the country.

Good luck in solving your CCUser issues.
