I thought the last few lines of this email on the cq-contest reflector might 
interest the RTTY folks...

My experience:

Bad calls that are not sometimes get removed from your log.  I have 
QSLs & even
a copy of the license of one station which had been deemed to be bad 
calls in
CQ WW.

Do not hesitate to approach CQ WW committee about such calls.  They 
are
reasonable.  However, expect them to put some extra effort to turn other 
Us 
into
Bs as a result of your effort to convince them that some Bs were Us - 
end 
result: not
worth the effort.

Uniques _are_ removed from CQ WW RTTY logs.

Since RTTY isn't a "real" mode, this should not worry most here.
