Hi Barry.

>From the WAEDC point of few it would be very appreciated to do the W2UP/0 trick
and offer an extra mult. It helps us also to put you in the right call area!
Rates are usually not a big issue @ WAEDC so the /0 would not matter to much I
guess.

I am not an expert on Clublog/LotW but I guess there should be a way to match it
anyway!

73 and be ready for QTCs-
