[Dxbase] Heads-up on operations using the callsign FT3YL (ambiguous prefix)

[Joseph Glockner]

 Heads-up about a callsign that are in the AMBIGUOUS category for Prefixes ...
 
// FT3YL //
 
Just saw that the callsign FT3YL will be used from Dec 1, 2016 thru 
Feb 1, 2018 from the  Dumont  d'Urville  Station  on  Petrels  Island  (AN-017),
Antarctica... This callsign will default to France(F) because of the Alias Map table mapping.
 
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 KC4 and then when the pop-up asks you if you want
to save this FT3YL mapped to KC4 -- 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 ...
