No, Win-Test doesn't work like that. It doesn't change zones you have entered by hand or selected by default, just because you choose a different country file. The calculated score may change if Win-Test thinks a QSO is in a different country than when you logged the QSO, but the exchange data (zone) will NOT be affected by updating your Country File.<br>
<br>I entered UA0XXX and WT "guessed" that the zone was 18, so I changed it to 19 and pressed Enter.<br><br>When I reloaded the log, with a different country file, the zone data for that QSO still says 19.<br><br>
If I try to enter a NEW QSO with a DIFFERENT callsign (e.g. UA0XYZ), WT will guess at whatever zone is in the currently selected country file. It's not smart enough to figure out that UA0XXX and UA0XXY are in the same zone (which is OK with me).<br>
<br>After selecting CTY_WT_MOD.DAT and reloading the log, select <b>Tools | Check Log | Search for possible pad exchanges</b> to find all the zone data you logged that disagree with the current country file guess.<br><br>

<p><span lang="EN-US">Hello,</span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US">I need to know something, this is my
situation.</span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US">In the station notebook I downloaded the
last CTY_WT_MOD.DAT file and did the contest with it. Some few zones where bad
and I retype the zone with the good one I received.</span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US">Now at home, in a DIFERENT notebook, I
copy the log and open it. I notice that in this computer I have selected
CTY.DAT instead of CTY_WT_MOD.DAT. So I downloaded CTY_WT_MOD.DAT and did RELOAD
LOG NOW.</span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US">Maybe I did something wrong? I think the
zones I copied where changed, </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US">For example:</span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US">UA0XXX gave me 599 19 and I type 19 in
my log.</span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US">CTY_WT_MOD.DAT have zone 17 for UA0XXX.</span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US">So if now I do RELOAD LOG NOW and Click
on OK will rewrite 17 over 19 for UA0XXX?</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;" lang="EN-US">I will be back to the
station to get the Cabrillo from the same computer I use in the contest?</span></p>
