 Hi Alan,

 I found exactly the same issue on my 900+ QSO log. ARRL does not recognize 4 multipliers out of 174 total.
 The problem is that the robot does not highlight where is the issue is or which are the wrong QTHs. I exported my log into excel and went through an in depth analysis in order to check for any inconsistency but could not find anything suspicious..

 I dumped my log into the grinder and got this message:
 (one or more QTHs in the copied exchange not recognized)

 I've eyeballed my log but nothing unusual found. Writelog won't let me log
 a QSO if I enter a bad mult name (can be over-ridden, but I didn't do
 that). So I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this. Is it possible that
 the WL mult list somehow doesn't match the ARRL abbreviation list?

 I don't mind loosing a mult if I did something wrong but I hate to lose one
 even before the log is cross checked.

 This is for a DX log so mult names are states + provinces. I logged at
 least one of every possible mult except NWT and NF. Yes, I even worked
 someone in NU (on two bands even :-)
