Re: [Dx4win] DX4WIN.AWD version 1.17 released
The folks at the Amateur Radio Lighthouse Society, particularly John Huggins, KX4O, provided me with an updated listing, as well as an easy way to get updates in the future. Karl, K1KO, kindly transcribed the Russian Lighthouse Award listing for me. Thanks, Karl! I have a World Flora Fauna listing which I will convert to DX4WIN format by the weekend, when I should be able to provide a new awards database to everyone. 73 - Jim AD1C On Wed, Jun 3, 2009 at 6:20 PM, Jim Reisert AD1C jjreis...@alum.mit.edu wrote: I wanted to put this in a separate note so it wouldn't get lost in the announcement.
