[MiQP-Mail] Another K6JSS suggestion

With regards to the K6JSS/county operations this weekend, I have the 
following suggestion.

You should log any of the K6JSS stations as K6JSS/cnty, rather than 
K6JSS/8/cnty,  for two reasons:

   1. Your logging software is much more likely to accept the former
      rather than the latter.
   2. I can guarantee that the MiQP logchecking software will accept the
      former.  I cannot make the same guarantee for the latter, and you
      shouldn't count on me hand-correcting several hundred QSOs.

The K6JSS grand-poobah, N8XX made a similar point in an earlier e-mail, 
but then later in the same e-mail referred to "K6JSS/8/cnty" (a typo, I 
suppose) so I wanted to reinforce the point again before the MIQP.

You can also log K6JSS/cnty simply as K6JSS if you wish.  The MiQP 
logchecking software automatically takes the county field into account 
when scoring dupes so your official score will come out correct, but 
your logging software may require "/cnty" to properly portray things 
during the contest.

Good luck to all this weekend.

73, Dave/K8CC
