Section multipliers??? The section is part of the exchange,
but does not a multiplier make in Field Day... Not only
that, there is a "C" class, mobile stations... which, if
they happen to end up in a different section, cannot be
worked again for credit unless done on a different mode
from any contacts made in the previous section. Found that
one out the hard way one year.
