yes, it should be fixed. I mentioned this error last year, but it looks
like no one of "big guns" had problems with. It is not only MRASZ,
but VERON, ARABH etc. It can be fixed, but: we'll have a real
problem, if someone activates HQ on Netherlands Antilles. The
acronym is VERONA and there is no space in *.bin file for 6 letters
acronyms.
If there will be a need to change bin format, please add RST sent to
it!! I want use ct in QRP contests with real exchanges.
Few more errors I found using ct9.50.001:
1) there is space for 15 HQ "zones" in zone window. I am really a
veeeery liiittttle pistol, with my 100W and wire antenna just above
ground, but I got 25 different HQs last weekend. Is there any
possibility to extend this window, or at least, to configure it
throwing away "personally not reachable zones" (in my case > 75 ;-
)), getting more HQs??
2) IARU contest at start up configures for WAZ zones, not for ITU.
My 1st QSO shows, that I'm in Argentina, not Germany. I know,
my fault, but... Perhaps you can place in new version of CT both
zones in personal header??
3)It is not posible, to log reciprocal license owners (or CEPT)
placed in England or Scotland. You have to override each call sign
individually. So M/DL7ANQ is placed by CT in Germany, and
MM/OZ1XXX in Danmark. Is this fixable??
About zone "errors" in Russia: it is not easy to detect zone number
from call sign. For example UA1O can be 19 or 29. There are many
"zone borders" across call sign area (20/21, 20/30 29/30 and so
on). So: listen to the number given. These guys normally knows
where they are ;-)
