About the only thing you can do about the 1.5 point CW QSOs is score them
after the contest on your summary sheet. (Remember 160 & 80 m CW are 2
points, but higher bands are 1.5 CW. All phone Q's are 1 pt.)

The easy way to get this information is to use the POST program's Log
Procedures/Seperate Log By Band and Mode feature to generate a seperate log
file for each band/mode. If you answer the prompts right as you go through
it, all the totals for each band/mode will be at the bottom of the last page
of each log, ready to put into a summary sheet. Just multiply by the
appropriate point multiple, 2, 1.5 or 1. PA Counties only count once,
regardless of band/mode, so the overall multiplier total works there.

Here is an excerpt of a logcfg.dat file:

MY CALL = AE2T
CONTEST = CAL QSO PARTY
DISPLAY MODE = COLOR

CONTEST NAME = PA QSO PARTY
DOMESTIC MULTIPLIER = DOMESTIC FILE
DOMESTIC QTH DATA FILENAME = PACTY.DOM
EXCHANGE RECEIVED = QSO NUMBER DOMESTIC QTH
QSO POINT METHOD = ONE POINT PER QSO

You could use ONE PHONE TWO CW as your QSO POINT METHOD. It would give a
better idea of your score during the contest, but really doesn't matter, as
you will refigure them afterwards.

Be sure the DOMESTIC QTH DATA FILENAME reflects the name of your .dom for PA
Counties. The one posted here in another message is good and I am attaching
another one I worked up. Just put it in your /LOG directory.

I am also attaching a .dom file, PAQINPA.DOM, for use by stations in PA,
which includes ARRL sections, PA counties and "DX" (1 mult for DX) according
to the rules. I spent quite some time fine-tuning these. I was planning on
going to PA for the contest, up until a few days ago, but plans didn't work
out. I'll be on from here in WNY instead. 

Have fun!
