Scott, Norm has already clarified the scoring about multiple QSOs for county
lines/corners.  I *do* have .dom files for TrLog.  I *do* use separate .cfg
files (same .dom file) for each county, county line and county corner
combination.  There are probably better ways to do it, but so far it's
helped me keep my sanity.  Let me know how I can help.

We can ALWAYS use more coverage, especially since some guys do only CW, or
only SSB.

Keep in touch.

73, Jim N9JF
