I noticed that the PROJCS is labeled as "Custom"...could that be confusing QGIS?
No, only the parameters matter.
Or is it because one is a projected CRS and one is a geographic CRS?
Should be no problem with OTF enabled.
*_or_state_boundary.prj_* PROJCS["Custom", GEOGCS["GCS_North_American_1983", DATUM["D_North_American_1983", SPHEROID["GRS_1980",6378137.0,298.257222101]], PRIMEM["Greenwich",0.0], UNIT["Degree",0.0174532925199433]], PROJECTION["Lambert_Conformal_Conic"], PARAMETER["False_Easting",1312335.958], PARAMETER["False_Northing",0.0], PARAMETER["Central_Meridian",-120.5], PARAMETER["Standard_Parallel_1",43.0], PARAMETER["Standard_Parallel_2",45.5], PARAMETER["Central_Parallel",41.75], UNIT["Foot",0.3048]]
If I load a file with that projection, it gets identified as EPSG:2992 NAD83 / Oregon Lambert (ft)
xMin,yMin 183871.74,88600.9 : xMax,yMax 2345213.24,1675042.97
That is the extent of whole Oregon in that projection.
*_CKUWR.prj_* GEOGCS["GCS_North_American_1983", DATUM["D_North_American_1983", SPHEROID["GRS_1980",6378137.0,298.257222101]], PRIMEM["Greenwich",0.0], UNIT["Degree",0.0174532925199433]]
This gets identified as EPSG:4269 NAD83
xMin,yMin -123.522,43.356 : xMax,yMax -121.714,45.4562
An area south of Portland.
Help very much appreciated.
I have started with a project in EPSG:3857, added Openstreetmap background from the openlayers plugin, and the extent points as delimited text with the EPSG codes above.
Make sure that QGIS prompts you for CRS of new layers, and delete .qpj files that may come from earlier tries you did.
