[Dx4win] dx4win vs ARRL: country conflicts Solved!

Thanks to all who replied. Jim, you were correct on both counts. My country
file was slightly out-of-date, and I did indeed have the F de N call
incorrectly entered as PY1RO/PY0 when it should have been just /0. A new CTY
and a couple of backstrokes and the issues have been solved.
