Don't make the change to the AR10.DAT file as was suggested - that is
clearly NOT how the ARRL rules read for this contest. Ken can fix the
program if he chooses.
Don't get so excited about this - ARRL is going to re-score your log
anyway. All Cabrillo is supposed to be is your entry class and a list of
QSOs you made. While the claimed score is included in your submission,
it's going to be ignored as soon as the log is read into the computer.
