If you log mobiles that sign as W4XXX/CTY as "W4XXX/CTY", then the logging
sw will tell you if you worked W4XXX in county CTY: it will say "DUPE".

Subject: Re: [CQ-Contest] In-state stations in QSO Parties...
I would suggest that in state stations should not sign /CTY if they are
not mobile or otherwise changing counties. Every time I hear that from a
station that I do not think is a mobile, I have to check to see if that /CTY
is
the same as when I worked him before.
Better to sign W3WW/4 or W3WW/FL.

FL QP is different in that an out of state station can actually run FL
stations to rate. I was doing this on Sunday when NQ4I called me, gave me
5nn GA, I gave him 5nn MA, and we both probably realized around the same
time, "oops...this one don't count!" Then Rick called me on phone a few
minutes later just to make sure.
The "CQ FQP" or "CQ FL" is a fine line...I thought stations signing with
their county in the CQ made things easier. The stations signing /county
added some confusion the first few times; maybe just "CQ FQP NA4XYZ BRE"
makes more sense.
In any case, it was fun.
