[PaQSO] County Line ?

One of the things that used to greatly annoy us when we ran county line
from Franklin and Fulton counties in past years is that you’d routinely
work stations that would respond:
“Ah, just a minute, hey Herb how to we add county line, Ahhhhhh, just a
minute…….”
I recommend you have a pad and pencil ready so you can just enter single
county in the logging program and jot down the rest on paper so you can
update the log after the contest.
But, please don’t expect the county line station to wait while you’re
figuring out how to use the logging software! It’s frustrating – we have
the T-Shirts to prove it!
