[Dx4win] counties

[WA7AA]

I don't have an XML subscription and yes, the F3 feature works in my 
setup. There's always a catch, though, and in this case by "works" it 
means supplies and populates the basic contact info like the operator 
name, address, state, and IOTA. Sorry to say that if you want additional 
details like a county, grid, or anything else, you probably need an XML 
subscription (disclaimer - -that's my guess since I don't have it).
