Robert,
No, I do not have a exchange prefill file for the CQ WW RTTY contest. The
reason is simple. The exchange in the contest is RST plus Zone number.
WriteLog automatically provides the Zone number based upon the call sign and
the data associated with that call from the wl_cty.dat file. To be sure you
are going to get the correct Zone number in the contest make sure you have
the latest wl_cty.dat downloaded and converted into a usable file just prior
to the contest.

Subject: [WriteLog] NAQP SSB prefill exchange file
Apologies to all who use my prefill files for various contests. I recently
went on vacation with the family to Japan and in the last minute rush to
finish packing, getting the pets care setup, notifying the security company
of our absence, etc., I completely forgot to put out an updated prefill file
for the NAQP RTTY and CW contests. Since I was going to be out of the
country for both contests it just never crossed my mind.
Now that we're back and this Saturday is the NAQP SSB I have updated my NAQP
history prefill file. Thanks to the Arizona Outlaws Contest Club, who
recently updated their NAQP history file which I used to add new calls in
addition to my own history file data. The updated prefill file, which now
contains 5,897 unique calls can be downloaded at the following link:

As always, be judicious in using a prefill file. Remember the information
is only as good as available data used to build the file. Also,
particularly in the NAQP contests, operators will frequently change the name
they send or their current QTH. Be sure to verify the prefill data with
what you copy over the air. The over the air exchange is the most accurate.
