Hi Lorenzo and all,
I wort to make a Python Class to get entities by prefix (dxcc number).
Some one know if exists a file than contains a full list of entities,
prefix, dxcc number?
You can find the list of entities, including the number, at the ARRL
site http://www.arrl.org/dxcc.
Please note that there is NOT a one to one relationship between the
prefixes and the DXCC entity number. Further, we have to consider that
some assignations are only valid in a specific time range. Some stations
are outside of the supposed entity. This is not a simple matter.
Using the "cty.dat" file and the tables from ARRL, its possible to build
database tables which provide a way to find the DXCC entity number of a
given callsign. I have programmed some utilities allowing me to do this
job using mariadb MySQL. I confess, in the current state, its a mess.
In the attached file, you can see the output of a job asking the
database. Although the prefix suggests that the entity is West Malaysia,
the station is operating in the East Malaysia entity 46.
Best wishes,
