 super checker.  However, if I changed the HB2xxx to HB9xxx then it did
 show up in the super checker window.  Did we each bust all these calls
 on both phone and cw or did some of the operator in Switzerland recently
 change there calls from HB9 to HB2? >>

This is why all those "check partial/super check partial" databases have no 
place in contesting.  TRUST YOUR OWN ABILITIES!  Throw that database BS in 
the GARBAGE!  Same as the packet/BUSTED stuff.  UGH.
