During the CQ WW CW Contest, I worked VP8CRT, but TRLog did not record =
it as a=20
mult.  Any reason why it is not a mult? How does it differentiate =
between Falklands
and South Shetlands and Antarctica?  Is it in the suffix?=20

I also received a couple of QSO's in which the sending station sent me a =
zone=20
different from what the log expected or what Post determined:=20

 A VE (XO7X?) sent zone 4, but Post says it should be zone 5.=20

A IS9/ sent zone 33, but Post says it should be 15.=20

What do I do in those cases?  Except for the VP8 (if it is Falklands),=20
none were zone mults. =20

I wish my rotor had worked as well as TRLog....the rotor stopped=20
working at 2000Z (not on the dot, but close enough) Sunday. =20
The upside was that it stopped while the beam was pointing=20
northeast--got Euros all afternoon :-), but no JA/VK's :-(

Thanks and 73,
