Predictably, Lake (LAKE
) and Lassen (LASS
) Counties also are treated as if they were Louisiana.
A workaround is going back to edit the log with :edi
, whereupon the multipliers will be honored.
Thanks for the report. We will look into it in next days.
Problem found. TLF does only recognize section multipliers with maximal 3 characters. Seems to be a leftover from times where 3 letter sections were the only ones. I will extend the recognized length to (6 or 8 characters). Lets hope that no 'creative' author of contest rules will introduce longer sections.
Just reread your message and the contest rules, it seems to me that as an in-state amateur your californian sections do NOT count as separate multiplier but only once for CA. Bt you have to record them in the log.
If that interpretation is correct please have a look for the MULT_LIST entry in the man page and especially for the use of aliases. That would mean you have to write something like
CA:LANG,LASS,LAKE
in your mult file.
Anyway the 3 letter section limit needs still to be resolved.
Fixed in PR #183.
Thanks again for reporting.
I am preparing for the California QSO Party. As an in-state participant, I have to record not only California counties but also American states and Canadian provinces as multipliers.
While testing out my setup it appears that the multiplier for Los Angeles County (
LANG
) is treated as the state of Louisiana (LA
). Perhaps it is not looking for the longest match when it should be?Here is where I simulated the log entry and used
\
to store it.And here is how it looks in the
:mult
screen.I am using a build from the Git sources at this commit:
