We found WCF section in our Field Day mult files. Worked like a champ.

yeah it ain't a contest but dx stns count for qso points
per the rules!   the way tr handles the fd "operating event"
one wud think that sections count as mults but it ain't
so!!  our running score during the event exceeded 300k
and a sweep (including the new West Central Florida section)
which by the way tr does not yet recognize...........
but the real score as calculated by tr post was 5077 pts.
1 pt for fone qso and 2 pts for cw and that was it since we
did nothing to get extra credits as per the rules.......
