I agree with Zack.

I often have local club members look me up to "give me a point" in the 
contest.  Often on FM.   Some will even work me on 6, 2, and 440 FM.  I 
doubt if they ever submit a log.  Sometimes I can get them to stick 
around to work a few other stations, but normally they are just looking 
for "the crazy Rover guy" to give him a point:-)  They are valid QSO's, 
I don't think I should loose them.  I'm hoping someday they will be 
inspired enough to take up VHF contesting on their own, but most of the 
folks around here are pretty anti-contest oriented.
