[CQ-Contest] ITU ZONE vs CQ ZONE

[Douglas Zwiebel]

This is a SOFTWARE problem.  In CQWW, you are supposed to
copy what is sent, but COUNT what counts!  So if CE2XYZ sends
you 599001, you LOG 599001, but COUNT CE and 12.
Not sure what IARU has to say about COPYING the exchange
versus COUNTING mults.
