Bad Country

Post by F6FLU »

Hello

KH8RRC gives us Country = Hawaii instead of American Samoa

Can you tell me what to change and where for Log4OM to display the correct country (American Samoa)
THANKS

If your using QRZ that is where the country is derived from and upon checking that call QRZ lists it as below

KH8RRC Hawaii flag Hawaii
C/O DAVID A FLACK
"RRC" TUTUILA IOTA CLUB
PO BOX 29761
HONOLULU, HI 96820-2161
USA

Using Hamcall provides American Samoa

With Info providers dissabled using Log4OM internal country file, cty file and Clublog exceptions also returns American Samoa

Sometimes QRZ dont return the latest dxpedition or contest data but thats usually due to the station not updating their QRZ information.

No, that means you have to switch off qrz.com to get the data from cty. Or you may change to hamcall.

By the way, HamQTH gives also American Samoa as country so also a lookup change to that provider is helpful.
