Something is really wrong with this TO7A public log. There are a few brief
runs on 160 meters scattered through the log, and they're all very familiar
calls to 160 meters operators. Then there's this run that was first noticed
by EA5RS that looks all wrong. Most of the calls are not regularly active
on 160 meters and only a three appear in PJ2T's 160 meter log:

UT5URW does not appear on 160m in any of the 7000+ logs except TO7A's. There is
also a second NIL QSO with UT5URW in TO7A's log on 20m. Andrey lives in a high
rise apartment building and doesn't have a 160m antenna as far as I know.
What's interesting is that UT5URW almost never sends in contest logs (his main
interest is DXing - I think he is missing only the Bouvet Island). The last log
submitted before 2014 was in 1995! But he is active in almost every CQ WW,
chasing DX and giving out points to friends. Just never bothers to submit the
log. What a surprise in 2014!
I grew up with UT5URW and I know that he keeps absolutely meticulous record of
his activities. There almost no chance that he could make a QSO without
logging, especially if it's a non-trivial 160m DX contact.
curious if these NIL QSOs exist on the SDR recording. May be someone else was
pretending to be UT5URW ;)

Frank, I looked at this with some spot checks: OE3V, LA5HE (Rag!), SP3CQP, etc.
Your team did not work any of these stations; nor did K3LR; nor did DL1A; nor
did CN2AA - on any band...
Looking a the log of ON4TO, the op made his last QSO at 2310z on 11/29 and it
looks like he went to bed. He resumed operating at 0608z on 11/30.
Odd indeed.

Juan,
You've discovered an extremely unusual pattern in the TO7A public log
that's very difficult to rationalize.
Three of the 160 meter European QSOs in TO7A's log have public logs:
ON4TO, UT5URW and R6KY. There is no TO7A 160M QSO in
any of these logs.
There's a remarkable run of 160 meter European QSOs from 0437-0608Z
Sunday in the TO7A's log but a lack of any of the very active 160 meter
European calls in the TO7A log.. It would be interesting to try to find the
European calls in the 0437-0608Z TO7A 160 meter log and also the
PY1NP and LU2YE calls in the 160 meters in the logs of other very active
160 meter stations such as CN2AA, 9K2HN, HK1NA and PJ2T.
I suspect only a tiny fraction of the European calls in that 0437-0608Z 160
meter run appear in any 160 meter log and PY1NP and LU2YE
probably won't be found either.
This unusual pattern may also appear elsewhere in the TO7A log...

Interesting debate, but I am afraid there has been some misleading
info/assumption on the reason for TO7A's DQ.
I have not studied the log in detail, but if you are curious enough, have a
look at TO7A's 160m log:
Not one single station with a public log in zones 11, 13, 14, 15, 16, 20 or
33 claims working TO7A on 160
Yet TO7A's log claims having worked 29 stations in these zones.
Most of these 29 QSOs are unique calls at least on 160, most do not have a
public log, and if they have a public log, the 160m QSO with TO7A is not
there
Maybe this has something to do with why he has been DQd
I have performed a similar scrutiny with some of TO7A's competitors logs but
I haven't found a similar situation
Just public logs data (5,8 million records) and some database code

Mike,
I wish you had told everyone you had information showing or even saying he
got caught red handed a long time ago. Do you have some information that
says he was caught "red handed"?
Everyone else is reading what has been written and the email posted on the
reflector says that the committee had a "belief" that he was using
assistance and substantiated the fact that it was a "belief" by asking him
to provide a recording (not required in the rules) in order to further
evaluate the situation. However, even in that email, the bottom line and
last sentence, after what would appear to be an attempt to communicate some
hope that there would be further evaluation, said emphatically and in no
uncertain terms that he was disqualified for 2014 but welcome to enter in
2015.
I am not making any assumption this process is as cut and dried as you would
like it to be.
73...Stan, K5GO
