[RTTY] AA5AU RTTY Call file available

[Jerry Flanders]

And I just discovered that my old call, W4UKU, is still listed in the rtty 
dta file (recent issue) I am using with WL. I gave this call up 4-5 years 
ago and it has not been reissued yet.

Maybe nobody ever culls these files. Seems to me if a call does not show up 
anywhere for 3 years it should be removed. This would make lookups go 
quicker and unclutter the Super Check Partial window.
