[WT-support] WT and CQWW !

[Dave Sharred]

If I catch you quickly before you go Larry - exactly which of the DTB files;
is there a recent one ??

Have a great trip; hope we work you on lots of bands; especially 160m (My
band !)

1/ The CheckPartial files (K5ZD SCP or whatever) DO NOT have any
relation with the guessed exchange !

2/ The DTB (DaTaBase) are used to guess zones, *if* the callsign are in
the file.

3/ If not, WT uses the CTY*.DAT file. You can choose which to use in the
Options / Data files / Country files... dialog.
