Hi Bob,
I use the N3FJP software for FQP.
The logging program allows you to select multiple counties.
When a station is worked it automatically logs multiple contacts, one for
each county that had been selected. So my log would look the same as yours.
The only difference might be the county order in the log.
All the contact times are the same though.
I only have to enter your call once and then the program does the rest.

Hello FQPers...
The Florida QSO Party is one which allows (encourages?) county line
operations by stations. There are explicit details in section 7)
Scoring, (B) Multipliers, (2) paragraph which state: /"//Florida
stations on a county line may be claimed as a QSO and a multiplier from
each county (2 QSO's and 2 multipliers)//"./
I am interested to know how county-line stations log contacts during the
contest. During FQP I might hear "CQ FQP de W4XYZ/LAK/POL/SUM" where a
station is operating from the corners of Lake, Polk, and Sumter.
In my log, I end up with three W4XYZ QSOs in a row, with each unique
county designator assign to each QSO. This is straight forward.
My questions are regarding what logging software do you use as a
county-line station? And what is the process for logging these multiple
contacts? Do you log them as three QSOs at that moment, or one QSO and
expand the log later, or what?
