[WT-support] Problem with zone guessing in 3.16

[Tom Wylie]

Isn't massaging the logs after the contest against the 
spirit of the Contest?   Why can't we go back to the good 
old day where you had to manually insert the exchange and 
not "guess" it.    Isnt accuracy the real teast instead of 
the guy who talks fastest, but gets the information wrong?

I mean,  we have automated our stations
we are automating our logging programmes,  why not just 
automate the operator and be done with it, then we can all 
go out for a meal and a beer and come home and see who whose 
computer won?
