And herein lies the rub, and not just with RTTY contesting, it applies to phone
and CW too.
Those stations that work the "marginal" other stations get whacked on UBN for
those errors. What I mean by "marginal" stations are those that casually
operate, often don't send in a log, may use a paddle on CW instead of a memory
keyer (inducing more possible errors), and are more inclined to logging errors.
Sometimes, these guys think they are doing us a favor by sending in logs,
unfortunately, bad error-filled logs are worse than none at all.
