[DXBase] refresh my memory please

Forgive me for not following my own rules about being more descriptive.

I'm transcribing some old handwritten logs for stations I manage.
The logs are from mid 80's.

I remember when I imported my old logs, I had to 'map' some of the older calls so that
they were correctly related to the country and it's correct time frame.

I just can't remember what it was with UR that I'm forgetting.

It wasn't a 'initialization' issue. It's a callsign recognition/mapping issue.
I'm just getting to foggy in the head to remember what it was.
