Hi Folks,

I just discovered a bug with the ARRL NPOTA and the DX4WIN Data
Updater.  The updater did not download the latest list, because the
first event on the calendar spans many days:

    Death Valley National Park
    NP15
    AI6KU
    2016-02-26 23:00:00
    2016-03-06 14:00:00

As a work-around, go into your DX4W###\UPDATE folder and remove this file:

    get-10-day-activations-api.php

You will also have to remove the Membership list and Calendar files
from these folders:

    SAVE => DX4WIN.CAL
    DX4W### => DX4WIN.MAS2

When you re-run the Updater, you should see it download the ARRL NPOTA
file, and also re-build the Calendar and Membership lists.

I will try to come up with a bug fix this weekend.

p.s. I was getting errors this morning on AGMemberList.txt from eQSL -
just ignore these.
