For clarification (de AA4GA):

>> Responses below

The question is:  If I operate 15m single band, but make a 
dozen Qs on 10 meters as the result of QSY requests, but 
only submit a log with 15m QSOs, will the guys I worked on 
10m be penalized because they are NIL?

>> The answer is yes.  You have submitted a log, and it does not contain qsos 
>> that someone else is claiming with you.  

I heard offline from K8CC as far as the 10m contest 
goes...per Dave, they would lose the QSOs.  Is this the 
same for CQWW?

>>  Yes.  The underlying logic that Cabrillo employs supports this.

I seriously want to know because I don't want to make Qs 
which the other guy will lose in case I strip out the non-
entry bands.  (yes, I realize that Cabrillo theoretically 
should classify me correctly based on my header info, even 
with the off-band QSOs still in the log)

>> The question is, why would you not report qsos that you made?  It's always
