Stations in the Republic of Kosova would be defined by the CTY.DAT file which is maintained by Jim AD1C.

Not all YU8 stations are in the Republic of Kosova.  For example, I worked YU8DZ on 40M RTTY during the February 2008 NAQP RTTY
contest and his QTH is not in the Republic of Kosova.

OK, so in a contest, what prefix will be Kosovo ?  If I work a YU, YT, YZ or other prefix now considered Serbia, how will I know
which country it is, Serbia or Kosovo ?  Or, what prefix do I set up in DX4WIN or N1MM to log it as Kosovo ?  It appears to me that
CQ is jumping the gun before a lot of questions are answered. A lot of things need to happen before this is a real done deal as I
see it.

Update: Kosova (Kosovo) Added as Multiplier for CQWW DX Contests / CQ DXMarathon

The Worked All Europe (WAE) award committee of the Deutsche Amateur Radio Club
(DARC) has voted to add Kosova (Kosovo) to the WAE country list. The CQ World Wide DX Contests and the CQ DX Marathon both use a
combination of the DXCC and WAE lists as the basis for their country lists.Therefore, Kosova will now be considered a separate
entity for both the CQ DX Marathon (effective February 17,
2008) and for the CQ WW DX Contests, beginning with the CQWW RTTY DX Contest on September 27-28,2008.

CQ previously announced that it was accepting Kosova as a separate entity for award credit, as of February 17, 2008.
