I guess, the following URL should work: http://www.qrz.com/db/M0XDF

so if you were to highlight  M0XDF  that should produce the right URL and attempt to display the page in the popup - to be honest, that's about as far as my knowledge goes - I was looking for a service to do that - I like that I don't have to copy the text - yes, I guess I could put something together with KM - but since this was a published use of Automator, I though I'd use it and as I said, it worked for some months before just failing - maybe in that time, I'd performed a minor upgrade, but I can't be sure of that.
