    Great grid! 1A was an enticing first clue, but I had to circle back to it.

        Hi! Would someone mind explaining 1A and 4A to me please :)

          Hi, sure:
          1A: I in the NATO alphabet is I is represented by India, and India is a country
          4A: Backer is the definition. "Retrieved from" is connector text, which I know is a lot, but it made the surface much better. "Unhinged" is the anagram indicator. "North" can be abbreviated to N. That added to door and anagrammed gives you "donor."
