Hi Jim, et al

I have a cron which downloads the cty.dat and wpxloc.raw files to local_data,  runs create_prefix.pl and then runs the command load/prefix

The prefix_data.pl file is successfully created in local_data.    Viewing the file, you can see that KJ6CAV and others are identified as being in Hawaii.
So far so good.

It seems the hiccup is at the load/prefix command although the response from the cluster is "operation successful"

Running SH/PREFIX VERSION appears to be correct but gives a multi-line response as follows:

Not seen that before.

I did the usual tests of downloading to the data directory but that didn't work either.   Also tried the whole update manually but same result. 
So there is a glitch that I think others are seeing.

Thanks for checking Mike.  I logged into the web site directly and
also verified that KJ6CAV is listed under Hawaii in the country file
as you saw.

Does SH/PFX VERSION give the correct result, or are both broken?

*** IMPORTANT***   If you are using the Mojo branch of DX Spider, the
country file needs to be saved to a different place.  See the
