[RTTY] Updated RTTY Callsign Database December 15, 2005

[Don Hill AA5AU]

Thanks to all who sent me RTTY logs for 2005 including master callsign lists
from the contest managers for DL-DX and BARTG HF Spring & Sprint RTTY contests.

The updated callsign RTTY database now contains 26,422 callsigns.  This is an
increase of over 2000 new callsigns since the last update in July 2005.

Callsigns worked in the year 2005 total 6,576.  A "lite" RTTY callsign database
file is also available which contains only the calls worked on RTTY in 2005.  A
callsign must show up in at least 3 logs in order for it to be included.

There are five files contained in the zipped file:
aa5au_rtty051215.dta (master file containing 26,422 calls used with WriteLog's
Super Check Partial feature)
aa5au_lite.dta (lite file containing 6,576 calls used with WriteLog's Super
Check Partial feature)
mstrtty.cal (master file in ASCII format in alphanumeric order)
mstrtty_lite.cal (lite file in ASCII format in alphanumbic order)
readme.txt (gives basic information about the files)

For information about the RTTY callsign database files, go to the Downloads page
