[Dxspider-support] NH8S spots CLX -> ARUSER = American Samoa despite correct KH8/S prefix in CC11 message.

The problem was in the CC User (AKA AR User) program.  It is now fixed.

  Something weird happening with NH8S spots from my Spider node to ARUSER.

  Spider CLX is using latest cty.dat file (and wpxloc.raw)
  ARUSER using latest (same as Spider) cty.dat file

  Cluster is sending spots for NH8S with correct Prefix for Swains Island but ARUSER shows spot as American Samoa.
  eg. CC11^24955.0^NH8S^ 8-Sep-2012^0107Z^up^JA7DDK^347^95^JA4PXC-11^62^32^45^25^AS^^Swains-Island-KH8/S^JA7-Japan-JA^^

  Switching ARUSER to use a CC Cluster (VE7CC), the exact same spot is correctly shown in ARUSER as Swains Island.
  eg. CC11^24955.0^NH8S^08-Sep-2012^0107^up^JA7DDK^69^0^JA4PXC-11^62^32^45^25^AS^^KH8/S^JA^AH48^^^^-11.5/171^^

  Apart from the country name, there is virtually no difference between the Spider and CC CC11 spot messages.

  This was for the same install of ARUSER, with nothing changed except to the connected node type.

  Why are the Spider spots being incorrectly displayed as American Samoa, yet the CC Spots correctly show as Swains Island?

  I did try modding the wpxloc.raw to remove the country name for KH8/S so the the Spider CC11 message was similar to the CC CC11 message (no country name, only prefix) and that made no difference.

  Anyone have any ideas where to look?

  PS. I have been performing the create_prefix.pl and load/prefix steps after I made any changes to cty.dat or wpxloc.raw during my tests.
