Hi!
Oblast ZK - new name of Chitinskaya CT. Now ZK.
In cty_rus.dat exchange.

Also, is ZK a legitimate Oblast designator? It's not in the multiplier list, but I had two different stations send me that one - from Asiatic Russia I think.

Once again I had issues with the Russian Contest module originally noted
in my post of 2011. (Back then I was using Version 10.84D. I am now using
Version 11.09B.)

The behavior of the QSO Entry box was really frustrating in respect to
country multipliers. When working a new country, instead of identifying
it as a new mult, the only message that would come up would be NEW
STATION.
Similarly new country mults were never identified in the Packet Spots
window or Band Map. The only MULTS flagged were new Russian Oblasts.

Although the mults showed on the log display and were scored okay, this
was a real pain while operating.

Was this only me? If not, seeing as this contest has more and more
participants each year maybe it's time this issue was addressed.

BTW the Cabrillo log generated by Wlog used the wrong contest
abbreviation.

It used CONTEST: RXDC. The sponsors will only accept CONTEST: RDXC
