  Country File Revision History

The country files were last changed on 26 October 2005. This file
describes all past changes, with the most recent changes <#CTY-1508>
listed at the end.

------------------------------------------------------------------------


      New CTY.DAT for CT Version 9!

CT version 9 has a new country file <#cty-403> called CTY.DAT. This
means there is now a single country file for all DX contests. In
addition to the data previously stored in three different CTY files,
CTY.DAT also includes the continent explicitly for every country,
latitude and longitude (no more need to run CTYHDG, since beam headings
are now computed internally by CT), and a local time offset from GMT. In
addition, all of these parameters can be changed on a prefix-by-prefix
basis. The special characters used to do this are described in the CT
version 9 manual.

Note that some primary prefixes in the CTY.DAT file (for example, 4U1V)
are preceded by an "*". These countries are only valid for the CQWW and
WAE contests, and the "*" tells CT version 9 to ignore them otherwise.
Please do NOT remove the "*".

------------------------------------------------------------------------


      CTY.DAT file format

CTY.DAT is a new file format for CT Version 9. It includes more
information than the .CTY files for previous versions of CT. This allows
CT to calculate, in real time, beam heading and sun times. It also means
that a single file can be used for all DX contests. The format is as
follows. Note that the fields are aligned in columns and spaced out for
readability only. It is the ":" at the end of each field that acts as a
delimiter for that field:

Column 	Length 	Description
1 	26 	Country Name
27 	5 	CQ Zone
32 	5 	ITU Zone
37 	5 	2-letter continent abbreviation
42 	9 	Latitude in degrees, + for North
51 	10 	Longitude in degrees, + for West
61 	9 	Local time offset from GMT
70 	6 	Primary DXCC Prefix (A "*" preceding this prefix indicates that
the country is on the DARC WAEDC list, and counts in CQ-sponsored
contests, but not ARRL-sponsored contests).

Alias DXCC prefixes (including the primary one) follow on consecutive
lines, separated by ",". If there is more than one line, subsequent
lines begin with the "&" continuation character. A ";" terminates the
last prefix in the list.

The following special characters can be applied to an alias prefix:

(#) 	Override CQ Zone
[#] 	Override ITU Zone
<#/#> 	Override latitude/longitude
{aa} 	Override Continent

See the examples on page 27 in the CT9 manual.

------------------------------------------------------------------------


      Known Limitations

    * CT8 can override zones on a prefix basis, but can only override
      continents on a country basis. This doesn't work in a few cases,
      notably IG9/IH9, which are in CQ Zone 33, and hence in Africa, but
      will be logged as Europe. Neither does it work for the part of
      Turkey that is in Europe - there is no way to just override the
      continent for the TA0 and TA1 prefixes. This is really only a
      problem for the IARU HF World Championship. In CQWW, the European
      part counts as a separate multiplier, hence CT gets the continent
      correct. In ARRL, contacts from W/VE are the same number of points
      whether Turkey is in Europe or Asia.

      This is not a problem in CT9, because you can now override the
      continent for a given prefix.

    * CT doesn't handle prefixes such as FR5ZQ/J correctly. Listing FR/J
      as a prefix for Juan de Nova in the country file doesn't work
      unless a station signs "FR/J" as his callsign. If you work one of
      these islands, you'll have to add it to the country file manually.
      Otherwise "/J" will be logged as Japan, "/G" as England, "/T" as
      Reunion, and "/E" as an unknown prefix.

------------------------------------------------------------------------


    Revision History

12 October 1993

    * HK0/Malpelo is in CQ zone 9, not 7.
    * Removed trailing 'AF' from IG9, IH9.
    * Changed IG9, IH9 to be in ITU zone 37.
    * Added 'AS' continent override to JD/o.
    * VP8GAV is in CQ zone 13, not 30.
    * Added more callsigns to KH0, KH8 and KP2. These are for stations
      that are still using the old prefixes (KG6, KS6 and KV4,
      respectively).
    * Added KG4CQ, KG4DL, KG4EH, KG4HG and KG4MK to KG4 prefix list.
    * Added X5 to T9 prefix list, though these stations are Serbs in
      Bosnia, and are not licensed by Bosnian authorities.
    * Removed trailing 'EU' from TA0, TA1, etc.
    * Changed RN, UN prefixes for Karelo-Finish Rep. back to RN1, UN1
      and added RN5WW.
    * Added KX6BU to V7 prefix list.
    * Added CE3MMV/9 to VP8/shetlands prefix list.
    * Corrected spelling of Suriname and Bosnia-Herzegovina.
    * I now use the same source to generate all three country files.
      Thus you might notice some cosmetic changes in ARRL.CTY and IARU.CTY.

18 October 1993

    * In Antarctica, replaced 8J1RY with 8J1RL and 8J1RM (JE1CKA).
    * Changed British prefixes 2,G,M to reflect correct callsign
      structure. #0, 2, 3 and 4 are HF stations, 2nd letter of prefix
      indicates country (G4PIQ).
    * Changed GM0VR in Shetlands list to GM0AVR (G4BAH). Also added
      GM3KCE, GM3KLA, GM3KZR, GM3XPQ, GM4ETG and GM4FNA and removed
      GM0ERM, GM4CAQ, GM4CHX and GM4JVC (all Scotland, not Shetlands).
    * Changed KC6, KG4 back to simple prefixes. CT checks for 2-letter
      suffixes automatically (JE1CKA).
    * Added TA1 (Europe) as separate multiplier for CQWW (K3EST).
    * Changed 4J to be a prefix for Armenia (UG). Though it is assigned
      to Azerbaijan (UD) effective 1 January 1994, it is currently being
      used by Armenia.
    * Changed X5 to be a prefix for Yugoslavia, since those calls are
      not licensed by the Bosnian government.
    * Removed prefixes from country files that are duplicates
      (supersets) of other prefixes for the same country and have no
      override in effect. Example: VE2 callsigns in ARRL.CTY file.

25 October 1993

    * Added the following Antarctic stations: CE9AP(13), CE9OH(13),
      CE9SAC(13), CE9SDJ(13), DP0GVN(38), IA/I3JPA(30) and LU4ZS(13).
    * Changed name of Germany to Fed. Rep. of Germany. (AK1J)
    * Removed TO from prefix list for France. These stations are
      /Departements d'Outre-Mer/ and /Territoires d'Outre-Mer/, that is,
      all overseas French territories. If you work a TO station, make
      sure to get the QTH! (F5JTL)
    * Added GM4CAQ to list of GM/Shetlands stations. (GM0ECO)
    * Changed default CQ zone of 4K4 from 19 to 18. Make sure to ask any
      4K4 station you work what zone they are in. (N2AA)
    * Added UX to prefix list for Ukraine. Removed UX2 prefix from
      Kaliningrad (UA2), UX8, UX9 and UX0 prefixes from Asiatic RSFSR
      (UA9) and UX1N prefix from Karelo-Finish Republic (UN1). (NT2X)
    * Changed VP8GAV from Antarctica to S. Georgia.

16 November 1993

    * Added zone overrides for BY9M-BY9S since they are in zone 24, not
      23. CT currently treats all BY9s as Zone 23.
    * Changed default zone of KC4AAA from 13 to 39, since that is the
      zone they usually give out.
    * Added IB9, ID9, IE9, IF9 and IK9 to prefix list for IT9, Sicily.
    * Added OH0MA, OH0MB, OH0MC and OH0MD to prefix list for OJ0, Market
      Reef (OH3MEP).
    * Added a few specific US callsigns whose CQ zone does not reflect
      the number in their callsign (i.e. AA6TT is in CQ zone 4, not 3)
      (K1EA).
    * Changed 4K5ZI from European Russia to Ukraine (K3EST).
    * Added CH9(5) and VY9(4) as prefixes for Canada. Note that starting
      1 December 1993, VE9 will be assigned to Nova Scotia, and a later
      version of CT will reflect this change (VE1NH).
    * Changed main prefix of South Sandwich to VP8/s and South Shetlands
      to VP8/h. Prefixes should not be more than 5 characters long (N6TV).
    * Removed X5 as a prefix for Yugoslavia. These stations don't count
      as anything since they are not properly licensed (K3EST).

22 November 1993

    * Added zone overrides for WN4KKN and KI3V.
    * Added SM1TDE/4U to prefix list for OD, Lebanon (DF4RD).
    * Removed OH0MC from prefix list for OJ0, Market Reef (OH3MEP).
    * Added ST0K to prefix list for ST, Sudan (DF4RD).
    * Added zone override for VE9, New Brunswick.
    * Added VI9X to prefix list for VK9X, Christmas I. (W5KNE).

------------------------------------------------------------------------

27 January 1994 (CTY-401)

    * Updated CIS prefixes again
          o I have kept most of the old prefixes in the list, since they
            probably won't be used by their new republics for some time.
          o Added RK, RU and RX variants for UA, UA1N, UA2 and UA9. RK
            replaces UZ, RU replaces UW, and RX replaces UV. UW, UV and
            UZ will continue to be listed as prefixes for Russia, as
            Ukraine claims they won't use these prefixes for a while.
          o Removed UK variants for UA, UA1N, UA2 and UA9. UK is now
            being used by Uzbekistan, ex-UI.
          o Changed standard prefix for Karelo-Finnish Republic to UA1N.
          o Changed spelling of Kaliningrad, UA2, to Kaliningradsk,
            Kaliningrad is the capital city.
          o Added zone overrides for UA8T and UA8V and their variants.
          o Removed 4K0, 4K3 as prefixes for European Russia, UA.
          o Removed 4K5, 4K6 and 4K7 as prefixes for Asiatic Russia,
            UA9. Now most 4K prefixes (except 4K2 and 4K4) will be used
            by Azerbaijan, ex-UD.
    * Added 3Y0PI to prefix list for Peter I I., 3Y/p.
    * Added 3Y9YBA, KK6KO/KC4, W6REC/KC4 and AT3D to prefix list for
