[RTTY] indicate your state in LOTW setup

[FireBrick]

and don't forget to include your County and Grid also.
Seems a lot of people hit <enter> instead of <next> and miss that page.

And the other issue that it seems many confuse
ITU zone is first and CQ zone is second on the entry page.
I see a lot of LoTW qsls that have the two zone indicators wrong.
