I don't know if this is the right place to report this, but here goes.

I've noticed that there are several problems in the logbook/outbox view, in the list of countries worked. There are some DX stations I've worked whose countries don't show up. But for now I'll just give one report one specific case which is the opposite problem. When I look at my list of countries worked, Turkey is appearing there. I've never worked any stations in Turkey, and when I click the link next to Turkey for the 1 QSO eQSL thinks I've made with that country, it takes me to a logging I made on March 11, 2007 for N9AU, which is actually in Wisconsin. Since the entire "N" block of callsigns belongs to the United States, there is no reason eQSL should think this one belongs to Turkey.

Hi Greg,

I got something similar today. I received an eQSL from a station I heard YB0KYM, which is obviously Indonesia, but eQSL stated the country to be the USA which is way off!

In my outbox is a simular problem: DL1VWR is reported to 'live' in st Lucia. But de callsign is obvious German! In my archive is callsign regulary German.
By the way: I can find this callsign under st Lucia in 'eqsl-countries'!
