<div><font>Careful reading of the CQ rules indicates that X-QSO allows
removal of a known mistake from a log submission to avoid a penalty to
the submitting station but will give credit to the other station for the
QSO. Sounds reasonable. So for CQ contests, just edit the Cabrillo
log file substituting X-QSO for QSO in the erroneous contact
lines -- it does not require a modification to the WinTest software until
all contest sponsors accept X-QSO.</font></div>

<div>
<div>The use of X-QSO has not been universally adopted by contest sponsors.
The use of X-QSO in a log for a contest that does not support it creates
various problems with the log submission. At best the QSO is ignored, and the
other person will get a NIL. At worse your log is treated as a check
log.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I think it would be risky to add a feature that only a few contest will
accept creating issues for the contests that don't support it.</div>
