For purpose of scoring, I just type VEROA into the field.
This is different and score separately.

We need one more caracter on the fied .. You can edit on the CABRILLO as
well.

BTW I'm using WL 10.40J

Writelog had the same problem, and it's complicated by the fact that
'VERON' is the legitimate HQ abbreviation for PA6HQ in the 
Netherlands, while 'VERONA'  is a different multiplier, for PJ2HQ in the
Netherlands Antilles. Thus, the truncation is liable to go 
uncaught with automated checking.

BTW, QSL for PJ2HQ is via N9AG.
