Still trying to get this right, I found that with no other changes, if I 
used "NAQP.MLT" as the multiplier file, it worked correctly, but if I 
used my own "MNQP.MLT", it reverted to wanting to send and log signal 
reports. I tried substituting a few other state QSO party MLT files and 
got the same result.

What is it about the MLT file that's causing this effect? Here's what it 
looks like:

#       This is MNQP.MLT -
#       For the MN side of MNQP
#
$K
$KH6
$KL
$VE
#
#
#
AIT = Aitkin
ANO = Anoka
... Minnesota counties
WSH = Washington
YEL = Yellow Medicine
AK  =Alaska
AL  =Alabama
... states
WV  =West Virginia
WY  =Wyoming
AB  =Alberta
BC  =British Columbia
... Canadian provinces & territories
YUK =Yukon
