> I just noticed that 12 October 2008 marked the 15th anniversary of my>
contest country file releases. Back then, it was CT only. Then NA,> TR and
WriteLog got on board, followed by many more (there's a list at> the bottom of
this web page: http://www.country-files.com/cty/ ). All> three major players in
the DX Cluster node arena (AR-Cluster, DX> Spider and CC Cluster) use some form
of these files.> > Here are those first release notes:> > 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.> > 73 - Jim AD1C> > > >
