Please re-read the instructions:

http://www.country-files.com/cty/index.htm#Version

"1.  In your logging program, try to log the callsign "VERSION" (on a
DX cluster node, use the SH/H VERSION or SH/SUN VERSION command). Each
version of the country files will return a different country. That
country will be in the release notes for that version."
