Sad to say that on closer examination, I don't think this will work.

Why, because e.g. EU5 is not recognised as EU005 etc. Thus if I work a G 
and log EU5, when I have told the prog. I am in EU005, then it gets scored 
as 15 points *not*  3 for my own IOTA zone.

The prog. really should be intelligent enough to know that e.g. EU5 is the 
same as EU005, after all I'm sure it knows that CQ zone 5 is the same as 
05, and doesn't score a separate  mult.


Fix  ASAP please.
