I was doing the comparison to the USACA list update which included Broom 
Cty, CO.  I don't remember seeing a mention of the Dade to Miami-Dade in the 
USACA magazine or CQ.  Thanks for the information.

John and others,

Several of us have been through the list many many times.  The official
name for Dade county changed many years ago to Miami-Dade and it is in
the list.  If you go by old names you will find Staten Island county is
also missing but it is now called Richmond.

73,
Larry, W0QE
