[Dxbase] LU1Z mapped wrong

I sent Tony and email directly late last night, and asked
him if he was using a Callbook CD. I am awaiting his answer.

If he is using a Callbook CD lookup, then the fact that he
manually updated the Call Map table to include LU1ZD recently
is mute - since the CD's information is what will be used -
regardless of what is in the Call Map table.

I looked at my Flying horse CD and they have LU1ZD listed as
VP8O.. I am thinking that the CD Tony is using might have the same
thing.
