[Elecraft] OT: CW Contest logging question

[Peter Pauly]

I have a question about the proper way to log power entries for the ARRL
International DX CW contest. People send "cut numerals" like:

K = 1000
1TT = 100
5TT = 500

I've even had someone send 1OO with the letter "oh" instead of zeroes.
Should I log and submit the carbrillo file with these cut numerals as they
sent them, or should I convert them to numbers before logging?

Thanks
