[WriteLog] RDXC- Country Multipliers and Cabrillo

Once again I had issues with the Russian Contest module originally noted in 
my post of 2011. (Back then I was using Version 10.84D. I am now using 
Version 11.09B.)

The behavior of the QSO Entry box was really frustrating in respect to 
country multipliers. When working a new country, instead of identifying it 
as a new mult, the only message that would come up would be NEW STATION. 
Similarly new country mults were never identified in the Packet Spots window 
or Band Map. The only MULTS flagged were new Russian Oblasts.

Although the mults showed on the log display and were scored okay, this was 
a real pain while operating.

Was this only me? If not, seeing as this contest has more and more 
participants each year maybe it's time this issue was addressed.

BTW the Cabrillo log generated by Wlog used the wrong contest abbreviation.

It used CONTEST: RXDC. The sponsors will only accept CONTEST: RDXC
