Other files in the Win-Test directory:
- wt.ini: Win-Test's initialization file. It contains information saved from the previous Win-Test session, including file name, callsign, grid locator, address, window positions and color settings. DO NOT MODIFY - unless you know what you are doing! Starting wt.exe with the -i or --alternative-ini parameter allows you to select a specific .INI file. This way you can create templates for different situations, and use different desktop icons to select them. For more information, see WT.INI.
- cty.dat: DXCC countries file. Updated by AD1C. The latest version is available at http://www.country-files.com.
- cty_wt.dat: Extended DXCC countries file. Modified and maintained by the Win-Test team. It contains CQ and ITU zones for VE and VK prefixes and for most of the Russian call areas. The latest version is available at http://download.win-test.com/files/country/.
- cty_wt_mod.dat: Extended and detailed DXCC countries file. Modified and maintained by F5IN based on the cty_wt.dat file. It contains CQ and ITU zones for former US prefixes, Lat. and Long. coordinates and time offset for many country exceptions. The latest version is available at http://download.win-test.com/files/country/.
- cty_cmw.dat: Commonwealth countries file (used in the RSGB Commonwealth contest).
- cty_cqm.dat: R-100 countries file (used in the CQ M contest).
- cty_eec.dat: European Economic Community countries file (used in the UBA contest).
- cty_obl.dat: Russian oblasts decoding file. It also contains Ukrainian oblasts (used in RDXC). The latest version is available at http://download.win-test.com/files/country/.
- mode.dat: Allocation of CW, SSB, RTTY sections inside amateur bands. Used by Win-Test to gather the mode of the incoming DX spots by frequency. It may be necessary to adapt this file to your needs especially on 40m CW. Note: The use of this file is deprecated since the band plans feature has been introduced (v. 3.2.0).
- gridsquare_map.bmp and map.dta: Files used by Win-Test to draw the gridsquares and world maps. You cannot edit them.
- (*.dat): Regional multiplier and equivalence files. Depending on the contest, they allow Win-Test to accept alternate abbreviations for ARRL Sections, Canadian Provinces, U.S. States, U.S. Counties, Russian Oblasts, etc. The latest equivalence files may be downloaded from http://download.win-test.com/files/equivalence/
