[CQ-Contest] zero pointers

[Chet Moore]

Hi Rick,

You have some "stinkin thinkin" going on here especially the part about not 
logging the zero pointers.

It is the CQ WW "DX" contest. Giving points for  US contacts that are not 
multipliers  would not be a good thing.   Giving points to US stations for 
in country contacts will make it just another "domestic contest"

Its pretty common for us at W3PP to work one of these enthusiastic stateside 
newbies in the CQWW or ARRL DX tests to say, thanks, this is the second year 
in a row that I got you on 160 thru 15 I'll see you on 10

we also get them wanting to work us on all bands in SS.

Don't hold your breath waiting for  cq to change the rules.

Rick, CHAMPIONS ADJUST !   Put em in the log and move on.  Not  logging zero 
pointers  is definitely the WRONG  thing to do.
