What are the scoring penalties for errors detected during the log checking?

Incorrect callsign - loss of that QSO plus an additional penalty of the point value of the QSO

Not in Log - loss of that QSO plus an additional penalty of the point value of the QSO

Incorrect serial number (number in log does not match the number sent by the other station) - loss of that QSO

Duplicate QSO - contact is removed with no additional penalty

Band change error (multi-operator station that violates the band change rules) - loss of all QSOs on that transmitter until it is back in compliance with the band change rules

Operation beyond 36 hours for single operators - Loss of all contacts after the 36 hours of operation (as calculated by the log checking software) has been reached.
