Sorry for noting this too late to take precautions, but here it is:

The QTC sent/received information in your log is NOT journaled as you log 
them like regular QSOs.

This means that if you lose power, crash, or otherwise shut down while 
running the WAE RTTY contest and then recover the log from the journal, you 
will recover all your QSOs, but you will NOT get all your QTCs back.

The work around is to do a File Save periodically during the contest to 
limit your exposure.
