Yes.  Callsign exceptions have a starting date, but no ending date.  In the 
case of a non-deleted country, a callsign mapping never goes away unless 
it's replaced with a more recent mapping. I just forgot to do this when I 
added AC7A/Bhutan.

If you worked AC7A recently, just change the prefix to "W", fill in the 
state (to get the CQ zone set correctly) and save the QSO.  This will add 
it to the callsign exception list and fix it for all subsequent QSOs.

This will be permanently fixed in the next edition of the country 
file.  Watch this reflector for information.
