  4.                  INTERNATIONAL ROUTING DESIGNATORS
  5.  
  6.  With the introduction of W0RLI V7.00 and support for Hierarchical
  7.  routing designators we have an opportunity to improve traffic routing
  8.  particularly for international traffic. Since I am at the present time
  9.  responsible for traffic to Asia and the Pacific and occasionally
  10.  Europe and Africa I have implemented some Hierarchical routing
  11.  designators which will assist me in international routing.
  12.  
  13.  Using this structure mail can now be addressed :
  14.  
  15.                   JA1ABC @ JA1KSO.JPN.AS
  16.                           or
  17.                   VK4AHD @ AX4BBS.AUS.AU
  18.  
  19.  Starting today you can begin using Continental and Country designators
  20.  for international traffic destined for Asia and the Pacific. I have
  21.  set up my forward files to support the following codes:
  22.  
  23.                       ** Continental Designators **
  24.  
  25.   NA  - North America
  26.   SA  - South America
  27.   EU  - Europe
  28.   AS  - Asia                 Forward toward N6VV
  29.   AF  - Africa               Forward toward N6VV
  30.   AU  - Australia            Forward toward N6VV
  31.  
  32.                       **   Country Designators   **
  33.  
  34. For country codes there is a generally accepted international
  35. standard for abreviations. These are used in international
  36. electronic message standards such as ANSI X.12 and EDIFACT. They are
  37. published by the International Standards Organization
  38. and known formally as ISO 3166-1981(E/F)

  119. I have forwarded this information thru the Pacific and Asia Nets
  120. and suggested that where possible they set up to support these codes.
  121. It will make all of our lives easier.
