For what it's worth...

I updated my files (including CTY file) using the FILE/WEB UPDATE DATA
FILES
from within WL.  After restarting WL, I typed in TO9A and received
"UNKNOWN MULT"...

I down loaded and installed the latest CTY file from  the K1EA web page.
Now when I type in TO9A, it correctly shows the mult as Martiniquie.

Seems that WL is NOT loading the current CTY file.
