Should you log non-simplex (repeater/network/DMR/DStar/YSF) QSO's? Yes, it's your log! When might you not log non-simplex (repeater/network) QSO's? During a contest, rules will typically stipulate only simplex connections can be logged for points. And contests usually expect Cabrillo logs be submitted, or the logging be done on LoTW (Logbook of the World), not QRZ.com. In SOTA (Summits On The Air), for example, you can log non-simplex contacts for points if its a non-terrestrial repeater (satellite). I think the main reason for logging outside a contest is in keeping with ARRL's guidance on the 3 reasons for keeping a log (Legal, Operational, Personal), the 3rd being, "Personally, a log is like a personal radio history reminding you of the people and places you’ve talked to...". http://arrl.com/keeping-a-log
