Huh?  Frankly, the logging program should detect this and alert you to 
the fact that the call is questionable or incorrect.  It should give you 
a warning when you first type it in DURING the contest.  That way, you 
will know you entered a zero instead of an O.  And you can correct it 
then.

73,
