The above exapmpes are getting flagged as the CTY.DAT file has 
them in those countries.  There are cases all the time when 
people come up with callsigns/locations that are at odds
with the CTY.DAT file.  Over the years AD1C has taken on the task 
of keeping it up to date but it is a simple matter for anyone 
to fix it themselves.

Jim's problem was that his CTY.DAT file or something - was making it 
so that he was getting UNKONWN countries.  

To update anyone who might be following this thread.

I have had Jim send me his CTY.DAT file and I ran it accross my log.
I did not have any problems with it and I too worked those three stations.

So I am looking into ti further - Jim has now sent me his LOG file
so I can see if there is some issue there - I have not had a chance 
to give it a try.
