; ANY line beginning with a semi-colon is a comment and is ignored by the
; logging program.
; This file is used by the CARF contest only to determine if a callsign
; is in Canada.
;This is a modified form of a file sent out on usenet.
;It is derived from the ARRL countries list.

;
;The colon-separated fields are:
;
; 1. primary amateur prefix ("*" suffix for deleted countries)
; Maximum of 6 chars are allowed in this field.
; My program ignores any line that has the * suffix.
; In my program this field must be a UNIQUE prefix or other identifier
; for each country. You can have several lines relating to one country
; (for example, to resolve zones).
; The program does not use this field to parse callsigns, only to
; identify a country by a short mnemonic prefix so this field is
; quite arbitrary. For example, the entry for Peru could have OA
; here since that is one of Peru's valid prefixes or you could put
; the word "Peru". The program doesn't care as long as each country
; has the same unique identifier here.
; 2. country name
; This field need only appear in the first occurrence of the country
; and can be left blank on subsequent lines. See the entry for VE in
; the table below.
; 3. continent Choices are, Af An As Eu Na Oc Sa
; If there is more than one zone for a particular entry only the first one
; is stored. You can add multiple lines in the file to allow the program
; to resolve the zones.
; 4. ITU zone(s)
; 5. CQ zone(s)
; 6. time zone (hours from UTC) This is ignored - not stored.
; 7. latitude
; 8. longitude
; All the preceding fields must fit on one line. But the two prefix fields
; (9 and 10) can easily be much longer than 80 characters. In order to make
; the file more readable, from the end of field 8 onwards a colon or a
; comma may be immediately followed by a backslash character which
; indicates that the prefix information is continued on the next line.
; The program ignores leading blanks on continuation lines.
; 9. ITU prefix allocation(s)
; 10. other amateur prefixes
; The program does not really care whether you put the prefixes in field
; 9 or field 10. But to keep things neat it might be best to put the
; specific ITU allocations in field 9 and then add any exceptions in
; field 10. But there MUST be at least one prefix or callsign in one of the
; two fields to allow the program to resolve that prefix.
; A sequence of prefixes may be specified such as VA-VG or 3A6-3G6.
; When a sequence is found the program the program compares the two and
; finds the first pair of corresponding letters that differ and then
; generates all the combinations.
; There are also three kinds of wildcards which are used when matching
; callsigns.
; The wildcards are:
; ! matches a single alphabetic character
; # matches a single numeric digit
; * matches all of the remaining string.
; You should use wildcards if possible because they do not
; generate multiple prefixes in the table whereas a sequence such as
; VA-VG generates the prefixes VA,VB,VC,VD,VE,VF,VG in the table whereas
; 4u#itu generates one prefix entry but matches ten possible calls.
