There seems to be some confusion over the points structure in IOTA between
TrLog and EI5DI's SDI software. Paul insists that the RSGB committee
interprets the rules as follows:

I quote
< QSO Points.
     Each contact with an IOTA island counts 15 points.
     Other contacts count 5 points, except contacts with
     the entrant's own country or own IOTA reference,
     which counts 2 points.

Irrespective of how this reads, it has been intended,
and interpreted, by the RSGB Contests Committee as meaning
that island stations in an entrant's own country count as
2 points.

Here's a quote from the 1996 IOTA Results booklet.  
"A significant number of stations scored islands in their
own country as 15 points and not as 2 points.">

Larry, you might have a look at this and any other users of TrLog during
IOTA might want to do a little editing before submitting logs.

Thanks for the space

Bob, VE3KZ
