Please follow the Installation link to find instructions for your

Here are the release notes:
19 October 2008 (CTY-1810) <cty-1810.zip>
* Updated the list of USA CQ zone exception calls. This list is
derived from the Super Check Partial database, cross-referenced to
the FCC database to determine calls that are not in the default CQ
Zone. I.e. K4 in Alabama, W8 in West Virginia, KH6 in Oregon.
These exceptions are *not* available in COUNTRY.DAT (NA) or
WF1B.DAT (WF1B RTTY) due to limitations on the number of prefixes
and calls allowed in those country files.
* K9 etc. is in ITU Zone 8, not 7 (was wrong in wl_cty.dat)
* 9M4SMO is East Malaysia, 9M6
* K6Y is Guam, KH2
* K7A is no longer Alaska, KL
* TO4X is French St. Martin, FS, not Martinique, FM
* TO8Z is Martinique, FM
