Don't agree with that, ADIF format is the de-facto standard format to
export/import into LogBook software or QSL managing.

Cabrillo has been originally defined as ASCII format file for standardize
the robot procedure when contest log are sended to
the Contest commitee.

If another softwares use cabrillo as exchange format their are not a
standard software.

My first suggestion were to don't allow log af INVALID QSO. I usually
writedown on a paper the QSO not Contest related
for logging or QSL purpose.

Obviously the Contest committee will filter the cabrillo log, so your
invalid QSO will not affect your score, is real annoing
have more QSO that the real number, but if no way to delete them we can live
with them.
