[LOGic] Fw: ARLD052 New DXCC entity: FJ ST BARTHELEMY

What I did was put a new DXCC entry as FJ-S for St. Bartholemy in the prefix
table along with FJ/OH2AM in the calls box and DXCC list. This way any
stations that used FJ previously still counted for St. Maartin. Yes
overlapping you might say is what it is. I will await the formal prefix
allocation before I do anything else. 

Probably wrong but it works!!!

How should LOGIC's prefix table changed to accommodate this new DXCC entity?

Searching for FJ brings up Saint Martin (FS, FJ), no mention of St. 
Barthelemy.

Does St. Barthelemy become a new prefix table entry for FJ (and FJ is 
removed from Saint Martin), or will this be another "overlapping" prefix 
which may or may not be from one or both locations?
