<div>It depends on how old the git
repository is when you do the update. If you update at or near a
change to the repository then, generally, it will have the latest
version of cty.dat. On the other hand if you update cty
religiously, but git pull only occasionally, then there will be a
reset to a previous version. But then, if you are updating cty
religiously, that will right itself fairly soon.<br>
<br>
Bear in mind that I use cty data for country and maybe state
information for those stations on the cluster that haven't set
their lat/long. This is used for things like beam heading etc, not
QSL, contesting or other more detailed uses - so I don't believe
that an absolutely up to date cty is going to be critical. Also,
while cty has some specific info on individual callsigns of
interest, these are pruned regularly and so it may be that the
historical record contained in the spots can't be matched up with
the current cty data. Indeed there are countries and/or in my spot
records going back to 1997 that don't exist any more.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>

<div>Is it ever possible then that the version of CTY that's in
the latest build could back-rev a newer version that's already
