The ARCI contest uses the RSTPossibleDomesticQTHAndPower exchange.

It is the only contest to use that one.

I think the problem is that 398 can also be an RST.  If your number was 698,
it would probably work.  So - if you have a number that looks like an RST, 
you need to put a leading zero on it.
