I received several responses and thought I'd respond to yours and the group.
Good comments from all.  Here is what I believe I've found based on the
leads.  For the ARRL RTTY RU, Writelog records a field titled <QTH:2>.  This
is the State exchanged during the contact.  DXBase expects the ADI format to
have <STATE> for the "state".  So, for this contest, your lead is perfect.
All I need to do is search and replace <QTH:2> with <STATE>.  It seems like
it would be easy for someone to modify the program itself to use STATE
instead of QTH:2.

No, just change "QTH:" to "STATE:" - you need the :2 as this indicates the ADIF field width.
