It's a no-brainer.

If he sent "2" then your log should show "2" and the scoring machine should
be obliged to accept "2" (including the mult).

the cty file gave Zone 5.  Of course, I logged "2" (and added a note that
he really sent 2).  Both Zones were mults (I was just fooling around in the
Test, and did not bother to work the W/K zones, so might not have another
Zone 5).
