This raises an interesting problem. I also updated my CTY a week or so ago and
had a problem in not
finding the updates. I was advised here that it had been relocated to
programData/writelog instead
of in WriteLog/Programs.
So far so good. I didn't work TO7ZG in the contest so no problem. But because
of Dick's email I
tried entering it in my log and found that it did not display a country.
So I copied the .DAT files from programData/writelog to WriteLog/Programs where
they had always been
in the past and bingo the country now displays upon log entry. I'm using 10.79D
which as far as I
know is current. So something is out of sync.
