Thanks Jonesy.

Now that you posted it, I recall that you had sent something like that  
earlier. I will do that in the future. As it was, I cut and pasted the  
header from the June contest with the appropriate changes. It didn't  
catch the all band category, but since I operated that and the default  
was that, there was no problem.

Maybe you should post something to the VHF Contesting list? - Duffey
