..I think that if you look at the summary sheet for your operation (or
the header in Cabrillo file) you will see "Section: __" as an assist to
the ARRL people in putting your log into the right grouping of entries
(like WCF is West Central Florida) - since you will be abroad I think DX
is your best pick :-)
Enjoy the rate!
