Win-Test does not have this feature.  If it did, one could accidentally mark
a valid QSO as 0 points, which would not be good.

Please explain why you want to mark the QSO as zero points.

There are some ways to get around this limitation, such as overtyping a
duplicate callsign, or make a note (Alt-N), then after the contest, do a
COPYLOG command to save the original log, then delete the 0 pointers and
generate your Cabrillo file (WRITELOG).  It all depends on *why* you want to
mark the QSO as 0 points.

Keep in mind that the Cabrillo output file includes every QSO in the log
with no indication of point value, even for dupes, so it is up to the log
checking software to calculate points officially, not your own logging
software.
