ALL:
 
Just a heads-up about a callsign that is in the AMBIGUOUS category for Prefixes ...
 
Just saw that the callsign 4U1GSC is being used from Brindisi, Italy
(Amateur Radio Club 4U1GSC UN Global Service Center)
during the CQWW. This callsign will default to 4U1U  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 I and then when the pop-up asks you if you want
 to save this 4U1GSC mapped to I -- 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 ...
