Hi Tim:

Yes I have a file now thanks.
Yes I saw that in the rules and it sounds a bit backwards!!!....As well I notice
in TRLog that the mult list has VO1 and VO2.....??  So if the rules say that
"Newfoundland counts as Labrador" why isn't the multilier just VO??    I am
confused.  Anyway the official name for the province is "Newfoundland and
Labrador".....for many years the name was "Newfoundland"...but last year the
Canadian govt  under pressure from some politicians who aren't busy enough,
changed the name to include Labrador.  All of us who are native Nfld'ers have
always known that VO2 was part of the province so the change is a bit ridiulous.
VO2 is in CQ Zone 2  and VO1 as on zone 5 ...so VO2 is special in that sense.
Anyway maybe Tree can advise as to why VO1 and VO2 are in the mult list when the
rules say  that Nfld. counts as Labrador.
Anyway
