IOTA users of DXbase,
Has any DXbase user, who also is using DX Atlas, downloaded
the IOTA.lst file from the DX Atlas website? The IOTA.lst file I
am speaking about was made by "Gérard 14SD330" ..
Reason I ask this question, is that I downloaded that file
(BIG file in size - with 92000+ entries) from the DX Atlas
website - only to find out that the file does NOT act correctly.
I asked Alex, the author of DX Atlas program, and he replied that
the file is just TOO BIG in the number of entries. He said that it
was acting strangely because DX Atlas has a limit of 65536 entries
per list!!!
What I was seeing is that when I put my mouse cursor over an IOTA
(such as AF-015 or AF-017) -- the hint text bubble window "did not"
show AF-015 or AF031 info .. it was displaying information about
OC-266 (for AF-015) and AS-137 (for AF-017).
Knowing that that IOTA.lst file was just TOO BIG, I am in the
process of amending the entries to a size that the DX Atlas
program will accomodate.
Has anyone else experienced this same abnormaility in the IOTA.lst
file?
