[WriteLog] VQ5A

[Bill Metzger]

Thanks Bob and I guess when in doubt I should read the instructions.  For
the last 2 years I have always copied the new country file to writelog, but
never realized it needed to be converted before use.  I went to download it
and found that I had, but then read the instructions.

The conversion went quickly and when I opened the contest log, the program
recalculated and updated VQ5A correctly.  A couple of messages suggested
that I change this to Chagos (VQ9) but that is erroneous.  VQ5A is the Turks
and Caicos.

Appreciate the quick response from all and good luck.  Already picked up a
few needed countries.

    VQ5A is not recognized so the program cannot determine location or any

doesn't
    count the QSO as a contact.  Any suggestions?
