Hi Dennis, I'm getting ready to do a new DXCC submission (The first in almost 15 years) two things:

1. Malyj_Vysotskij has reverted to Russia and no longer is claimed by Finland. The ARRL reflects it as deleted and here's the skinny on it. Logic still considers it an active entity.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malyj_Vysotskij

2. Is there still an easy way I can make the awards reflect Logic's prefix table to match the designation the DXCC uses? I remember being able to do that back around Logic 3 but ongoing prefix updates removed my corrections which I would have liked to have had remain. I have no idea how to alter the table today.

DXCC lists Malyj_Vysotskij as R1M, logic lists it as 4J1
Both Logic & the ARRL list 4J as Azerbaijan.

I just might make DXCC Honor Roll if I behave myself.

Thanks!

Ok, this is ARRL# 151, listed in LOGic as 4J1. And it is listed here as deleted. So just go to tools/setup/list of valid values, locate DXCC 4J1, and mark it as deleted.

The ARRL actually lists this as R1MV.
http://www.arrl.org/file.../dxcclist_jan_2013a.txt

To change it, in tools/setup/list of valid values, click the CHANGE VALUE button, and enter R1MV. This will fix the log and DXCC list.

As for the prefix table, there is no need to have deleted entities in it. There is a record for it tho. Look for RI1M. Change the DXCC PFX to R1MV. What call do you have for your Malyj Vysotskij call?

Congrats on nearing Honor Roll!

73,

DH

Thank you Dennis, I appreciate that & I'll make those changes.

4J1FS is the QSL for M-J from 1992. This won't help with the Honor roll stats but it's nice to have deleted ones to the total credit. The 7-8 years I was in Chicago without an antenna really hurt me as far as my DXCC total went, it was during the high spot in the solar cycle. Many rare ones slipped by at that time...
