You are correct, Fred. I remember way back there was discussion of phone or CW only 5BDXCC and some folks were given an extra little plaque with "SSB only" or "CW only", but that did not last long nor did it happen often.
I think why Ron had the hit was his selection of all modes with all bands. Therefore, as he did not have a 40 phone QSO credited, he got the hit. If he had marked mixed, CW or phone without the bands, he should not get a hit, either.
