Re: IOTA Chasers: the IOTA tag for FK8HM in QRZ is incorrect


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

That¡¯s not unusual. ?I¡¯ve run across quite a few erroneous IOTA tags in the QRZ database call details tab. ?Some are probably where an activator visited an island and intended to remove it after the activation, but forgot. ?One recent visitor to the Bahamas I worked thought he was on NA-113. ?He was close, but actually on NA-001. ?I¡¯ve tried to nicely point out those errors a couple times, but have mostly been ignored, so I stopped. ?I¡¯ve only recently begun compiling a short list of the ones I find.

The IOTA tag displayed in QRZ's entry for FK8HM's is "EU-148 Languedoc-Roussillon Region group", but the LoTW confirmation I received for a QSO made earlier today specifies OC-032.

Neither the BigCTY nor the ClubLog exception lists include an entry for FK8HM; thus, I suggest manually adding an entry to DXView's Override List specifying that FK8HM is in OC-032.
