Ok Ian,
Here is what I did with it. I am with Skywarn here in Indiana and I kept call
letters of the hams involved, names, addresses status and so on. Let me see if
I can dig up that information. I will send it to you on list some one els may
be interested. I won't send you the database, but information on how I created
it. I am not using it now, but, if I ever need a smaller database again, I
will use it.
We are Braille Bible printers,
