[WriteLog] CQ WW 160 CW exchange format

[Gary AL9A]

What contest format did you use?  I used CQ WW 160m Contest.  When I opened 
the log it asked if I wanted to run CW or SSB.  My log exchange fields shows 
'QTH, not 'Section' or 'State' as DX stations would be neither a section nor 
a state.  I suspect you may have selected the wrong contest format file. 
Check the lower right hand corner of the log and see what contest the log is 
for.  If it doesn't say 'CQ WW 160m Contest' try starting a new log and see 
what happens.
