[Dxbase] suggestion

[KB2000a]

Hi Neal,

 

Congrats! 

 

Something I would like to see, is an updated country file, instead of everyone having to constantly due these little add-ons manually. Even without a major revision release of the program, doing this annually or for special updates would be a big plus. 

 

Thanks

Keith N5RA
