[Dxbase] LOTW - DXB difference

Chesterfield (TX3A) has uploaded three times now for me on LOTW but they
only count one time in Dxbase 2007.  Others have uploaded their logs several
times also.  Could this be the difference in totals?  LOTW sees it as a hit
and Dxbase can only check it once.  Which makes sense to me.

Could they be from a separate callsign?
