dxcc VERSION by Fabian Kurz, DJ1YFK. http://fkurz.net/ham/dxcc/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dxcc determines the ARRL DXCC entity of a ham radio callsign, based on the cty.dat country file by Jim Reisert, AD1C (http://country-files.com/). Usage: dxcc [-g] <callsign> Example output: $ dxcc DJ1YFK Callsign: DJ1YFK Main Prefix: DL Country Name: Fed. Rep. of Germany WAZ Zone: 14 ITU Zone: 28 Continent: EU Latitude: 51.00 Longitude: -10.00 UTC shift: -1.0 When invoked with the -g flag, a Perl/Tk GUI with the same basic functionality, plus a worldmap showing the location of the DXCC is shown. When invoked with the -m [Prefix] command line option, the beam heading and direction to between the two countries is calculated. INSTALL ------- dxcc is a self contained Perl script and can run without any external files. It includes the cty.dat file (provided by Jim Reisert, AD1C, web site: http://country-files.com/), but also checks /usr/(local/)share/dxcc/cty.dat for possible updates of this file. For the GUI, a world map file (earth.gif) is included in the package. A Makefile which installs 'dxcc' to $DESTDIR/bin (by default: /usr/bin) and earth.gif to $DESTDIR/share/dxcc/ is included. At your option, put an up-to-date version of the country-file to /usr/(local/)/share/dxcc/.
