[CQ-Contest] Multiple QSO party logging and submissions

I built a multiplier file for TR that will let me log and properly parse 
all the possible exchanges for NEQP, 7QP, and IN. I'll generate a 
Cabrillo file at the end of the weekend for my 7QP entry, then sort out 
the 1's and 9's into submissions for NEQP and IQP. Since you don't 
really have to score your own logs, as long as they're duped, it works. 
You can score 'em pretty easily by importing the log into Excel and 
sorting by mult.

By the way, the 7QP rules specifically allow you to work a mobile 
operating in another state's QP again when he moves to another county. 
You just have to get his exchange right and do what it takes to keep 
your dupe sheet happy.

MARAC is a challenge. Those who come much below 050 either give 
reasonable exchanges or I enter the first two letters to get their state 
right ...there's never been enough of them to impact my score.

Next weekend in the 7QP I'll be mobile in eleven central Oregon 
counties. The route and schedule are on my web page
