I have not maintained the Shetlands callsign list in the country files for the
last few years.  One year I looked through the printed callbook and identified
all the stations in the correct postal code (ZE2 #xx).  Like I said, I have not
done this in several years.  I'll see if I can search for this using my RAC
callbook CDROM, and update the list. There is a club which uses the GZ prefix
and is in Shetlands.  I don't know how many of the other stations are still
active.

In the mean time, if anyone heard a Shetlands station that was not identified
properly in your logging software, please let me know!

Thanks & 73 - Jim AD1C
