Here is the list of changes:
28-Feb-95 * Added 3D2CT and 3D2CU as callsigns for Conway Reef, 3D2/c.
(CTY-502) * Added GB6AR to callsign list for Wales, GW.
* Removed LU1ZS from prefix list for S. Shetlands, VP8/h.
* Added ZK1UVO, ZK1VDX and ZK1VTK to prefix list for
North Cooks, ZK1/n.
The files are available from a number of sources (listed in easiest/soonest
to hardest/latest order):
1. Send a message to CT-USER-REQUEST@eng.pko.dec.com to request the file(s)
you want, i.e.:
GET cty.dat
GET arrl.cty
GET history.cty
Remember that file names are in lower case. Multiple file requests on
separate lines are OK. The files are there NOW.
2. Send a message to CT-USER REQUEST@eng.pko.dec.com and get the whole .ZIP
file in UUencoded form. If you don't already have a program to
UUdecode, you will need to get UUD.COM as well:
GET cty.zip
GET uud.com (optional)
Remove the headers and trailers from the UUD.COM mail message so that
the resulting file begins with "ENC.COM.B&F=" and ends with "z!1", and
save it to UUD.COM. Then remove the headers and trailers from the
CTY.ZIP mail message so that the resulting file begins with "begin 664
cty.zip" and ends with "end". Save this to a file called CTY.UU. Then
on your PC type:
C:\> uud cty.uu
This should create the CTY.ZIP file.
3. FTP the file from:
maspar.maspar.com:/pub/k2mm/ct-files/cty.zip
This is an ANONYMOUS FTP server. When you get the username
prompt from gatekeeper, log in as anonymous, and use your EMAIL
address (i.e. reisert@eng.pko.dec.com) as the password. Then
'cd' to /pub/k2mm/ct-files, type 'binary' then 'get cty.zip'.
John K2MM is pretty good about keeping the latest files in there. Look
for a file dated February 28, 1995 or later.
4. FTP the file from:
gatekeeper.dec.com:/pub/misc/hamradio/cty.zip
This is an ANONYMOUS FTP server. When you get the username
prompt from gatekeeper, log in as anonymous, and use your EMAIL
address (i.e. reisert@eng.pko.dec.com) as the password. Then
'cd' to /pub/misc/hamradio, type 'binary' then 'get cty.zip'.
This may take several days to catch up - look for a file dated
February 28, 1995 or later.
5. Download the file CTY-502.EXE from the CT BBS at 508-460-8877.
I will upload it Tuesday afternoon, 2/28, but it may take a couple
of days for K1EA to move it to the public area, and include it with
UPD-CT.
6. Download the file CTY-502.ZIP from the DX BBS at 502-898-8864.
I will upload it Tuesday afternoon 2/28.
As always, please send me any corrections.
