You must have used a very old country file at one time, or made the change
to Ukraine yourself.  In fact, the *only* RU prefix that is mapped to
Ukraine in the current country file is RU5U:

RU5U,UT,1982/01/01,1993/07/01

DX4WIN 9.0x does maintain a file named "usrexcpt.dat" in your SAVE
directory which contains call-to-country mappings specific to you.  So if
you make a change, that change will essentially live on forever, unless you
periodically remove this file.

If there is no MODE specified in the Comments, field, DX4WIN will
assume they are phone spots.  If the mode field includes "FT8", they
will be interpreted as Digital spots.

One other feature I forgot to mention that is not in the release notes.

For users of DX4WIN 9.05 and later, the country file now contains an
extensive database of geographic coordinates by prefix.  For example,
logging calls like UA4FBG and UA3RA will give more precise distance,
bearing, sunrise and sunset times.  This is especially useful for beaming
countries that span a large geographic area, such as Russia, Canada, United
States, Argentina, etc.  This is an easier way to get the information,
rather than having to go to the DX cluster and type "SH/SUN UA4FBG" or "SH/H
UA3RA".  Grid squares, especially the 6-digit ones, as well as IOTA will
still override the prefix data, as they are typically even more accurate.
