George made a point that I missed....you can fool POST by putting in the state
(CA in my case) but for ARRL admin, you would need to go back to the Cabrillo
ARRL header and put in the appropriate section (SV for me) so they can lump you
in the right group. The rest of the log still will have the CA for each
exchange sent.
The obvious is to put the section value in CABNAME.DAT to keep it permanent.
I still remember hand logging back in the 80s and each year I appreciate TR
even more!!

You need to have your ARRL section in the Cabrillo header.
The ARRL needs to know you section.
That is why POST asks - but it should also ask what exchange you
sent in the contest.
