Re: [IRCA] Canadian AM Call Changes Questions

[Russ Edmunds <wb2bjh@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks, Scott ! Exactly what I need. My logs have undergone a lot of
changes from index cards to Lotus123 to Excel to Access, and sometimes
things didn't come out right.

And also thanks to the  FCC also following the idea of calling a new owner
to a dark, deleted facility being a new station, I'm going to have a
smaller number of those to check out when I get done.
