Country Alias Editor
Choose Window ▶ Editors ▶ Country Alias Editor to open a window to define information to associate with a call. For example, you can create an entry for R7BA/9, associating that call with the UA country code in EU, instead of UA9 in AS as would have been determined from “R9BA”. Or you could add an IOTA definition, or provide a definition for a call that is unknown in the countries database.
To create an entry in the table, enter a call sign in the Define call field, choose a country code in the popup list, and press Do It . The parameters for the selected country code are used to populate the remaining columns in the table. You may then optionally edit values in columns other than Code and Name . For example, you might want to change the Latitude and Longitude coordinates (the default coordinates are based on population centroids, and are not likely to be accurate for a geographically large country). To delete an entry, select the row and press Remove . The custom list is saved each time it is changed, and applies for all situations where SkookumLogger needs to look up information for a call.
The country code list has hundreds of entries, making it cumbersome to manually scroll to a selection. To auto-scroll, select the button by pressing the tab key, then type the first character of a country code.
You can also use this editor to deal with invalid calls like 8J1C70Y. SkookumLogger logger will allow you to enter anything in the Define Call, and will treat it as a valid callsign once you have assigned a country code for that call.
