Thanks, Nate! The pre-Stew is in progress and I'll use the existing one.
But I'll check it out for the next 160m CW contest.

Thanks, but I already have the latest cty.dat file. The "callmaster" file
contains only callsigns, one per line. And I didn't see anything like that
there. Did I miss something?

The only one I can find on Github is two years old.

I haven't operated RTTY in many years. Maybe I should think about it again?
:-)
I even wrote some DOS-based RTTY software --and sold a few copies of it--
years ago. I just found the floppies with the Pascal source code last week.
It was fun. :-)

Hello all,
I see several versions in this file, and have read quite a bit on the web
site.

But I can't tell which one to use for tlf. One has "wpx" in the file name,
but reading the documentation, it seems its for a specific logging program

Regardless of whether the displayed score is accurate, please do not
completely eliminate it from tlf.
If it is distracting to some, then the score display could be turned off.

RST + CQ Zone for all other countries outside US or Canada

All I think I need now is a C algorithm that does the following with the
grid square input:
1. Checks that the length of the grid square variable is exactly four
characters long
2. Check that the first two characters are uppercase letters a...z
3. Check that the last two characters are numbers 0..

Thanks to Pat's help via e-mail, I was able to get tlf working for the ARRL
160. I have never used tlf before, and love it. I noticed that tlf's
constant score update feature adds to the enjoyment of the contest as well
as providing some incentive to keep going when a body gets tired. :-)
