But it WILL accept it (at least my 13.13A does), what it doesn't do 
is score it or flag it as a multiplier. That in itself is immaterial 
as your log is scored by the adjudicators. If you didn't enter it in 
SD you will have to add it manually in your Cabrillo log file.

When I first encountered this problem (at 2am yesterday morning) I 
dived in and edited the cqww.mlt file in Notepad and added E7 as an 
allowed prefix for Bosnia (T9). At the same time I updated the 
Montenegro prefixes to 4O.

Paul issued an updated countries list on Friday, I assume that has 
the correct prefixes in it.
