ALL:

Just a heads-up about a callsign that is in the  AMBIGUOUS category for Prefixes ...
 
Just saw that the callsign E51M  will be used from  Manihiki Atoll  from
March 28, 2012 to April 10, 2012.

This callsign will default to E5/S because of the Alias Map table mapping - and,
because this is one of those Ambiguous prefixes.

This callsign is not currently MAPPED in the CALLMAP table -- so, if you want, 
simply make a dummy QSO with this callsign and change the PREFIX column
of your logbook mdb file to E5/N  and then when the pop-up asks you if you want
to save this  E51M  mapped to E5/N -- say YES/OK ----   Then delete that dummy QSO ..
 
The CALLMAP table will now be updated in advance so that if you work this
station -- it will have the correct PREFIX in your logbook QSO window ...

In this Dxpedition -- there is NO MENTION that they will be going to the South Cooks
also and use this same callsign .. So, mapping it in the CALLMAP table will be good.
 
Just FYI !!
