[RTTY] LoTW/Makrothen (Contesting)

[IronmanY2k]

The log for the Makrothen Contest comes out FB.  There is no RST or State/Province/DXCC listed on the Cabrillo log.
The logs shows the 160 meter contacts but it doesn't claim points for them.  There is no log required for the LOTW,
just upload your logs to LOTW and your in.  All you now have to do is program the exchange messages to include RST 
and State/Province/DX. It seems we may be able to work two tests at once here.  Don't even think about trying to
add the RTTY sprint in this setup; you will have to do a separate log for that one.

You might want to check and see if it can still prepare the bug-free 
makrothen log you will actually submit...
