The issue of X-QSO or X QSO does generate an error for NAQP's that
gets identified in the confirmation email and only the confirmation
email. It is the participants responsibility to correct the error and
resubmit. If the participant does not read the confirmation email or
does not correct and resubmit the line will be ignored.
Basically it is the participants responsibility to submit a good log.
To suggest the log checker or contest manager modify a log so that it
is properly received opens up a whole new round of ethics. Now I will
work with and advise the participant on how to get a good log
submitted as sometimes the error messages can be challenging to
understand. But I won't modify the log.
Now the disclaimer, that this may not apply to all contests on how
they handle the log receiving and preliminary log checking.

The log checking program could be smarter about common mistakes like
that. At the very least, an "X" in column 1 without a hyphen ought to
generate an error so the person doing the log checking can make a
manual correction.

Peter,
You entered them as "X QSO". You left out the hyphen "X-QSO".
For this reason your QSOS with OE6Z and E7DX on 75 were ignored by
the log checking software.
