[ct-user] Can't Log HI

[Dan Reese]

I found my problem - my AR10.DAT was NOT up to date.  Thought I
had that covered after a recent reinstall, but my oversight.  I
had a version from 12/29/1996 that did not have "AK" (or HI) as a
valid section.  I replaced it with the 12/3/2000 version and no
more mult troubles.  Thanks Ed/K1EP for pointing me in that
direction.

By the way, the two KL7 stations I worked were sending "5NN AK",
no serial.

Dan, N9XX

created a dummy log and could log either AK or HI without a
problem.  Do you have the latest AR10.DAT file?
