[WT-support] Fw: TO station on CQWW

[Olof Lundberg]

I think you are correct Andy. What ultimately matters is what the
adjudicators use as a reference. Look at these TOs like a surprise bonus
mult as some compensation for your busted mults :-)

However, we shouldn't have to do these hacks. Those who are going to
activate new and/or exotic callsigns really ought to alert the keeper of the
CTY and also the SCP files about their intentions and life would be more
straight-forward for all of us.

Hi,
Surely this is unnecessary, the cabrillo format does not include any country
data and when they do the adjudication the software should recognise where
TO2A is and count it as a country (FY). At least I would hope that CQWW have
an up-to-date cty file.

I also downloaded the latest cty_wt_mod.dat file and when I logged him it
gave me //// as a mult and 0 as a points value.

Here's hoping I'm right and I don't lose a mult.

Hello Chris,

I followed N6TV's instructions and was able to update TO2A in the Country
file.  Here is what it looks like:

French Guiana:            09:  12:  SA:    4.00:    53.00:     3.0: FY:
     FY,=TO2A;

Don't forget to reload the WT log after you make the change.

When I first updated the record in cty_wt_mod.dat, I forgot to add ";" 
after "=TO2A". Once I added ";", it worked just fine.

doesn't care at all. I even deleted the cty_wt_mod.dat and WT also didn't
care (with the cty_wt_mod.dat still checked in the Options-Data
Files-Country Files. So having no cty_wt_mod.dat in the countryFiles
directry I clicked on "Download". So it obviously downloaded a file, I
reopened the contest file and everyting looked good in WT. But no
cty_wt_mod.dat file on the whole computer.
