I'm testing TRLog 6.73 for use in the Ohio QSO Party.  I have two comments and a question.

(1)  RST is not part of the Ohio QP exchange.  I believe that adding
EXCHANGE RECEIVED = QSO NUMBER DOMESTIC OR DX QTH
to the configuration file after the CONTEST = OHIO QSO PARTY line fixes this.

(2)  In log.dat, logging of county names longer than five letters causes problems.  The point data is preceded by a repetition of the sixth letter of the county name and a space, lengthening the line.  I believe that this can be fixed by creating a custom DOM file with all the county names shortened, thus:  Ashl = ASHL replaces the line Ashland = ASHL.  This truncation also allows more multipliers to be shown on screen.

(3)  Even with shortened multiplier names and BIG REMAINING LIST = TRUE, not all the mults show on screen at once.  I recognize that setting REMAINING MULT DISPLAY MODE = ERASE will improve this situation as the contest progresses, but I want to ask if there is a way to scroll back through the remaining multiplier list when not all of it shows on screen.  ALT-G does not seem to do anything.

73, Paul W8TM
