Good catch Bill.
Apparently there are others. N1MM only lists 63 on the mult sheet but I
find VP9, KP2, YS, XE, J3, 6Y, V4 do light up red indicating a mult.
There maybe more too. It would be helpful to have a complete country
list of mults to share with everyone.
As discussed earlier mults are very important. I don't recall listening
down in that area for mults but I will pay attention now! Reason #2 why
wire antennas are great for NAQP. Beams can work too but they need to
be pointed in the right direction :<).
If I can add a couple more mults to my score it's a big deal! Thanks.

"Multipliers: Are U.S. states (including KH6 and KL7), 13 Canadian
provinces/territories (British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba,
Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, PEI, Newfoundland/Labrador,
Yukon, NWT and Nunavut) and other North American countries."
Read carefully the last five words of the sentence. There are more than 63
multipliers per band.
