CT or Writelog (the two logging programs I know well) put dups in as zero
contacts and so too for same country contacts
in say the CQ WW.  Cabrillo log checking software should allow for
duplicates and same country contacts.  Mine does.
I agree that to delete the QSO can cause problems for the other station
sometimes depending on the Q.   There should be no penalty
for these in any contest.  Penalties are for busted Q's, Not in logs, and
the like.
