Country confusion, Fernando de Noronha

I'm pretty new to this, so I'm not sure if this is a bug or a misunderstanding of how to properly use CQRLOG, but a station I recently worked, PY0F/AA4NC, in Fernando de Noronha, seems to be accounted as if it were in the USA. I tried manually editing the country, grid, ITU. WAZ, all to no avail. Any tips on why I can't seem to get this right?
Thanks,

Re: Country confusion, Fernando de Noronha

Fixed. Use new country files. The update procedure is automated. Thanks for advice! Don't forget to perform DXCC statistics rebuild!

Re: Hi Martin, another short list

Hi Tom, K8WDX,

you did a great job. Many thanks, your advice is very useful. Other side of the coin is the ability to find a reliable data source. For USA & dependencies it can be the latest FCC listing (available at HamQTH), for others we need a frequently updated callbook (possibly QRZ?).

I am very sorry but I can't accept ClubLog as country/prefix mapping reference. They have many good useful data but don't expect that CQRlog will be intact with ClubLog internal rules. ClubLog introduces a very bad practice, tends to be a self-appointed authority and others, like you, Tom, eat the bait! My sincere pardon and apology to you, OM!

There are some definitely bad, impolite and unacceptable statements like the notice about 1B1AB - this QSO IS CORRECT (!!!), keep in mind that people living within this entity have NO CHANCE to get another licence than with 1B1 prefix (they can't get 5B4, they can't get TA). Such QSO is correct in every aspect, although it is not accepted for DXCC. Quite different situation is, for example, with the so-called Principality of Seborga, misusing the prefix T0. Hams living within Seborgan area CAN GET a regular Italian license, it is THEIR OWN decision to use the illegal T0 prefix. The same applies to the Donetsk republic in Ukraine, signing D0...

Thanks Martin, I change these

Thanks Martin, I change these manually, and yes Clublog is not always correct, I do a lot of research before I change anything, and I always leave 1B1 alone. Now if we just get these US stations to change their call when they move all will be good, most of these stations are Military people and move around a lot so I guess changing calls is not a good idea. 73!
