[OhQP-mail] Map of planned activity?

[Alan Sewell N5NA]

Mike,

Yes, it's a LARGE download and you need to download and install each 
patch too.  The reason it's so large is it contains polygon information 
for every county in the US and some of Canada too.

There's an updated DLL that hasn't been released yet that adds and fixes 
a couple of things in the KML map generation.  You should have received 
it by separate email but if anyone else is going to try CQ/X please let 
me know.

There's a bit of a learning curve to CQ/X so drop me or Chuck a line if 
you have any questions.

73,  Alan  N5NA
