[Dx4win] Import Prefix Errors

[Jim Reisert AD1C]

The problem is two-fold:

1.  There was a mismatch between the country database and the ADIF 
import filter.  See this recent message from the reflector archives:

     http://mailman.qth.net/pipermail/dx4win/2006-November/009088.html

2.  It sounds like your logging program exported QSOs with incorrect 
country data attached to them.  YU6W is Montenegro.  R7C is European 
Russia.  4-oscar-3B (not 4-zero-3B) is Montenegro.  The contest 
logging country file might be out-of-date.  One of the DX4WIN import 
preferences is to accept DX4WIN values.  If you choose that, the 
import errors should go away.
