G'Day,

Today I processed some German QSL cards and found many listing LDK: XX as well as the DOK: Xnn.

So I hunted around and found a list for the LDK Diploma here.

I have edited the list a little. But you will find a minor problem with the list as attached.

The list contains the German special letters that include umlauts. Not only have these special German letters been used in the description of some value, but there are some "values" that contain umlauts that if removed will create duplicate values.

For example ...

BO Bochum (WAT) Stadt Nordrhein-Westfalen
BÖ Bördekreis Kreis Sachsen-Anhalt (2)

... which in my browser shows the code for Bordekreis as O - umlaut and, if the umlaut is removed, duplictes the code for BO - Bochum.

I have left the special umlaut'ed characters in place so as not create duplicate values. The values are there - but keep in kind they may not "sort" as you expect.

I have no idea yet what impact the umlauts will have on entering data from the QSL cards.

If anyone has any good ideas on handling these special values, let me know. Hopefully before I come across a QSL card with LDK for Bördekreis - for example.
