I use DX4WIN.  It has a function built in to select QSOs to be confirmed on 
the basis of one QSL per band/mode combination.  My hope originally was 
that I would quickly ramp down the percentage of QSOs that required QSLs, 
but this has not happened, at least not to the extent I thought.  I think 
that simply demonstrates how important the casual contest ops are to 
serious contesters.  Clearly, I'm still working my way through them...
