Have you imported the QSOs already - if so simply change
Code/DXCC/Entity in the existing QSOs to KH6.? If not,
edit the ADIF file as explained below and import it.

QRZ.com shows that KR1STA is a vanity call with a Hawaii
address. It also shows a previous call of WH6DEY so there
is a rather good chance that she's in Hawaii.

Have you imported the QSOs already - if so simply change

The original CQ Magazine references are no longer available. County
Hunter seems to have taken over. I suspect there is an authoritative
source I have not found.

Your ADIF file identifies KR1STA as Country=USA.

To make <CNTY:8>HI,Kauai valid, change the DXCC (prefix) for those
QSOs to KH6, Change "Code" to 110 or change "Entity" to Hawaii (if
you change one the other two will change automatically).

If you want to edit the ADIF before import, change <Country:3>USA
to <Country:6>Hawaii for the two QSOs.

The DXCC code is for the continental USA (not Hawaii), the CONTinent code is NA (not OC), the CQ zone is 4 (not 31), the ITU zone is 7 (not 61), and the COUNTRY field is USA (not Hawaii). All of those are incompatible with the State (HI) as well as the county. If KR1STA was really in Hawaii, then all of these fields need to be corrected..
