[Dxspider-support] QRZ lookups via DX Spider

I'm going out on a limb and make a wild-ass guess here...
Where the file has:
$qrz_uid = 'wa9pie';
#
$qrz_uid = undef;
I suppose you need one or the other. That wasn't clear. But regardless...
I commented out one of them and I get the same message (and yes, I did the
same with password and I do have an XML subscription).
So yeah... if anyone can help me decode this with specifics... that would
be gratefully appreciated.
I also can't create the usdb because there's no Zlib on my system (as far
as I can tell this is the cause). I can't figure out how to get it
installed. (and I've installed everything else).
