That problem has been fixed in revision 1.16 from Feb. 19th. Please get the
newest version from release 2.5.2 issued today.

There was also some bug which has been fixed, plus you need following syntax:

elog -h ... -p 8080 -a "Station Number=CC001" ...

note the "" are around the whole attribute=value string, not only the attribute.
