Why remove the USA stations? This means that if those USA stations
submit logs, the contest judges will find a NIL in their logs where
they worked you. Furthermore, that contact might be a valid
multiplier for that USA station, too, which they will lose.
Leaving the USA stations in certainly doesn't hurt your score at all.
They are all zero points, and there's no penalty for zero pointers.
Removing them certainly hurts other's scores, though.
I can't see any benefit to removing ANY stations from your log. If
you work them, log them. Let the contest judges sort out the wheat
and the chaff.
