+ AA6YQ comments below

QRZ.com and the US Postal Service list a particular Louisiana Parish exactly as Saint Tammany.? In contrast, countyhunter.com, HamCall.net, and DXKeeper Capture use the spelling of "St. Tammany".? That works out well for my county chasing. ?Numerous county spelling differences occur nationally.? QRZ.com XML is used by me.My question: what magic does DXKeeper do to actually make this spelling adjustment from QRZ.COM to DXKeeper Capture when logging a contact?? Or something else is in the mix.? Any comments will be appreciated

+ DXKeeper applies several spelling corrections to all U.S. county names in order to comply with the county names specified with countyhunter.com, the web site associated with the sponsor of the USA-CA "Worked All U.S. Counties" awards:?

+ A candidate county name is converted to upper case, an then check against these rules:

1. remove the word County from the end of the name

2. ST => St.

3. SAINT => St.

4. MC => Mc.

+ DXKeeper also applies state-specific spelling corrections. It applies these 7 for counties in Louisiana:

5. LA,EAST BATON, LA,EAST BATON ROUGE => LA,E. Baton Rouge"
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ??
6. LA,EAST CARROLL => LA,E. Carroll"
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ??
7. LA,EAST FELICIANA =>LA,E. Feliciana
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ??
8. LA,ST. JOHN THE BTS => LA,St. John the Baptist
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ??
9. LA,WEST BATON, LA,WEST BATON ROUGE =>LA,W. Baton Rouge
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ??
10. LA,WEST CARROLL =>LA,W. Carroll
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ??
11. LA,WEST FELICIANA? =>LA,W. Feliciana

+Rule 3 above is what put Saint Tammany into proper form.
