Ted,

Modifying the mult file is only half (the easy half) of  what is necessary 
to support the new 10M Contest rules.  The NA program  itself must be 
modified to treat Mexico as a non-country (similar to US/VE)  and rely on the 
exchanged data to define it's mult status.

I've already  modified the mult file and am working on the program changes 
now.  This  is a big deal trying to figure out how to implement the 
"one-of-a-kind" rule  without breaking everything else.  We should have this all 
done and up on  the web site by early next week.  Watch for an announcement 
here on this  reflector.
