[CQ-Contest] [Fwd: [WriteLog] WPX Scoring Issue]

[David Pruett]

Now I'm really confused...but then again I'm a newbie to the RTTY WPX 
contest...

How can states be a mult if the contest exchange is a QSO number?  
Furthermore, the published rules state the multiplier is the number of 
prefixes worked.

Maybe I'll just go back to CW/SSB :-(
