Guys,
There are 3 call areas for Mexico in the ARRL 10.  XE1,  XE2 and XE3.  XF4 
remains a country multiplier.
Within each call  area there are several states just like we have here in 
the 
US (exception  being CA, HI and AK).
Also, make NA accept DF or DFE for District  Federal.
XE1 COL DF EMX GTO HGO JAL MIC MOR NAY PUE  QRO TLX VER
XE2 AGS BAC BCS CHH  COA  DGO  NLE SLP SIN SON TAM ZAC
XE3 CAM CHI GRO OAX QUI TAB  YUC

I am also attaching a PDF with a great deal of information.   (IF the PDF 
does not come across, email me direct and I will send it to  you.)
