[ct-user] RAC data files

This turned out to be a little bit of a pain. The RAC.DAT file sent to me by VE5CPU had some none ANSI characters (hex AO) in the file which hosed up the parsing of the file.

In addition, there is embedded code that had the old provinces in the headers.

I have fixed CT to ignore the bad characters in the RAC.DAT as well as fix the headers. I am releasing this version tonight because the Canada Day contest is in two days!

73, Ken
