Problem extracting chat from logfile

[Hopper]

I am trying to extract chat lines from my EQ2 logfiles for my bachelor thesis but i have a problem:

I run EQ2 in combination with profit reborn UI (play on Splitpawserver)
I use eq2logcleaner to filter my logfiles
The chat i want is from the following channels:
Level chat 1-70 + norrathtrade

I took a logfile example:

(1194361399)[Tue Nov 06 16:03:19 2007] Logging to 'logs/Splitpaw/eq2log_Tirin.txt' is now *ON*
(1194361399)[Tue Nov 06 16:03:19 2007] \aPC -1 Raukssnus:Raukssnus\/a tells norrathtrade (17), "Lvl 61 SK LFG for Nest"
(1194361408)[Tue Nov 06 16:03:28 2007] Lillemor gained an achievement point and now has 88 points.
(1194361417)[Tue Nov 06 16:03:37 2007] \aPC -1 Offkee:Offkee\/a tells Level_60-69 (5), "CoV grp looking for tank pst"
(1194361703)[Tue Nov 06 16:08:23 2007] Logging to 'logs/Splitpaw/eq2log_Tirin.txt' is now *ON*
(1194361739)[Tue Nov 06 16:08:59 2007] \aPC -1 Emmelita:Emmelita\/a tells Level_50-59 (6), "55sk LFG"
(1194361766)[Tue Nov 06 16:09:26 2007] \aPC -1 Echostorm:Echostorm\/a tells Level_50-59 (6), "what is a good lvl 50 place besides PoF"
(1194361770)[Tue Nov 06 16:09:30 2007] \aPC -1 Noooo:Noooo\/a tells norrathtrade (17), "any jeweler lfw?"
(1194361790)[Tue Nov 06 16:09:50 2007] \aPC -1 Evie:Evie\/a tells Level_50-59 (6), "lesser faydark"
(1194361803)[Tue Nov 06 16:10:03 2007] \aPC -1 Raukssnus:Raukssnus\/a tells Level_60-69 (5), "Group looking for more for fast Nest run. pst"
(1194361806)[Tue Nov 06 16:10:06 2007] \aPC -1 Raukssnus:Raukssnus\/a tells norrathtrade (17), "Group looking for more for fast Nest run. pst"
(1194361825)[Tue Nov 06 16:10:25 2007] \aPC -1 Elvenstorm:Elvenstorm\/a tells Level_10-19 (9), "what's the 2 main stats needed for a dirge plz?"
(1194361829)[Tue Nov 06 16:10:29 2007] \aPC -1 Portex:Portex\/a tells Level_60-69 (5), "lookin for healer to help with last mob for raincaller..pst"
(1194361836)[Tue Nov 06 16:10:36 2007] \aPC -1 Etheon:Etheon\/a tells Level_10-19 (9), "str and int"

and filtered it using EQ2logcleaner,
set to Inlcude Chat Types: say, tell, channels, shout, ooc
ran it and got this result:

[Tue Nov 06 16:03:19 2007] Raukssnus tells norrathtrade (17), "Lvl 61 SK LFG for Nest"
[Tue Nov 06 16:09:30 2007] Noooo tells norrathtrade (17), "any jeweler lfw?"
[Tue Nov 06 16:10:06 2007] Raukssnus tells norrathtrade (17), "Group looking for more for fast Nest run. pst"


My Questions:
1) This is a repeatable phenomenon. Even though the chat lines for norrathtrade and the lvl chats are the same, it will always only recognize norrathtrade???
I have a suspicion it may be because "norrathtrade" is a custom channel. but it should still get the lvl chat should it not?

2) why is there a "\apc -1" before all the chat lines?
3) what is that "\/a" after the names?

Please help me with any advice you have, my thesis is in danger here
