[CQ-Contest] Way back - ARRL log format -- suggestion for Cabrillo

[Randy Thompson K5ZD]

This ability does exist for CQ WW and CQ WPX Contests.  Simply place X- in
front of the QSO line and the QSO will not count for your score, but will
count for the other station. 

Example:
QSO: 21150 PH 2014-10-25 0641 OH99ZZ      59  15     J47X          59  20


Change to
X-QSO: 21150 PH 2014-10-25 0641 OH99ZZ      59  15     J47X          59  20
