That is 'correct.'  The ARRL robot now wants to see Cabrillo V3.0 logs.

In Cabrillo 3 format the correct bands are 1.2G  2.3G  3.4G  5.7G 10G 
and 24G.

The G _must_ be there.

Also  900-928 MHz QSOs are all on 902.  903 or any other 900 MHz freq 
will cause that
line to be rejected also.

The robot also rejects lines ending with a computer ID number saying 
'not in Cabrillo format.'
