Jim - I experienced the same thing plus the same happened for Hawaii
When the state was plugged in then "new" went away and the QSO was logged
properly.
Additionally WL is not in sync with the ARRL abreviations.
Prince Edward Island must be entered as PEI not PE as the ARRL
abbreviation is stated.
Likewise Labrador is LAB not the suggested LB.
Northwest Territories is NWT not YT.
Nunavut is not even included - should be NU.
NU is also omitted in the shell for the upcoming RAC Winter Contest.
I also do not understand if you work a station on CW, say, in NV then go
to work the station on SSB the state (NV) does not automatically populate.
Yes this is a function that positively should be there in a contesting
program.
I think you can change the multiplier list yourself for the other problems
but it should not be that way.
Not sure if these are user fixable - will check before the RAC test.
