[LOGic] TX5C

Just getting ready for TX5C I typed the call into the new QSO box and found
Logic8 identified it as FY for DXCC purposes.  I went into the prefix list,
found Clipperton, and added TX5C-and all was well.  I was curious about what
had caused the problem, so I looked at the FY entry and found FY listed
there but also TX-which explains why I had the problem.  I infer from this
that TX was once a valid FY prefix, and I deleted it.  Does anyone know if
this was the case?  Or was this an error in the prefix table?

 

 

The real question I am interested in is the following.  When I had left TX
in the FY entry but had added TX5C to the FO-C entry all worked fine.  I
suspect this was the case only because FO-C appears in the table before FY.
So here is the question.  Does Logic do a scan in alphabetical order and
stop when it first finds a DXCC entity with a template which is a match to
the call of interest?  Or is the operation more complex than that,i.e. does
Logic look for all DXCC entries (in this case FY and FO-C (after I modified
the entry) which match the call and decided somehow which is the correct
one?
