Many USA stations call me below 7150. They call constantly until I tell them 
they are out of the band and then they usually stop. Sometimes  this happens 
because of the useage of Internet spotting and just using the mouse to move the 
transmitting frequency. Whatever, it is a violation of the USA's license.
I find this practice happening more and more. It is clearly cheating if the QSO 
is claimed for the score . The burden is not on the non USA station to know the 
frequency allocation of the USA station license.
The software should be progrmmed to catch this nonsense because the logs of 
both stations should reflect the transmitting frequency.
If the USA station's log does not reflect the correct transmitting frequency, 
then the log should be considered a check log.
In this age of ham radio software being free or at a very low cost, there is no 
reasonable excuse for not indicating the transmit frequency.
The few hand written logs that are  submitted should   require the transmitting 
frequency. Anybody submitting a hand written log and cheats doing so, well that 
person is just a nutter.
If the software can catch this nonsense, and  if it is a patten and not just a 
once or twice mistake, then the log should be DQed.
