[WriteLog] Different callsign and section

This is an excerpt from my writelog.ini file:

[Report]
Call=N2WKS

[Multipliers]
CallPrefix=VP2V

As George stated, if the "Call" field does not correlate with the
registration code in the WLOGKEY.ini file then WL will not work, however,
the "CallPrefix" field is what is used by WL to score contests and that
value can be changed to whatever country you are operating from.  

>From Writelog Help:
Used by multiplier modules to score your log according to your DXCC country.
CALLPREFIX=W5
PREFIX_XTRA=x

Tony,

I use my WL from both K5KG and J75KG.  Ron, K5DJ, issued me a separate 
registration number for my WL, so I can use it from J75KG.  That way I can 
have a separate writelog.ini in which the callsign and location are
specified 
as J7 and not K5.  You may want to do the same thing for your different call

sign and location.  In fact, if you put your different callsign into 
writelog.ini, WL will croak if you do not have a registration number for
that 
call.

73, Geo...
