Hi Ron...  Would you please put out the final word on updating country files again?

I know there is an updated country file at the CT site that, for example, has E44 as Palestine.

Someone said to rename that cty.dat file to wl_cty.dat and run the utility - But as I recall, others have warned NOT to do that.  I understand that the WL_CTY file has more info, eg proper VE CQ zones etc.

So what is the procedure to keep up to date with this?  I don't see any updated country files at the WriteLog site, yet E44 doesn't come up corectly with my v9.22.

Should I do the CTY.DAT (from the CT site) rename to WL_CTY.DAT thing, or is there another solution?  Will updates to WL_CTY.DAT appear at the WriteLog site?

Sorry to rehash this, but I think there are others that, like me, need it clarified (again?).  THANKS!
