Continental Breakdown Files

[Ward Silver]

I'm interested in doing an experiment with the continental breakdown 
files from this season's contests (CQ WW, ARRL DX, WPX SSB).  These are 
the short files with the continents listed and a percentage of your total 
QSOs for each.  All the major logging programs generate them.  

Send me your files, labelled by contest and including your STATE.  Then 
I'll generate both a list and a US/VE map showing the average percentage 
of EU and AS QSOs for each state.  I don't know if I'll be able to do it 
on a contest-by-contest basis...depends on how much data I get.

This will be published in "CQ Contest" later this year.  Hopefully, it 
will be straightforward enough to "nearly" automate, so it could be done 
regularly.  This might be a good thing to review to see whether you're 
making more or less QSOs with the target areas than the average from your 
state.  Also, it will be interesting to see the percentages change across 
the NA continent.  Over time, it will also be neat to watch the 
percentages ebb and flow with solar conditions.

Again - I just need your continental percentage breakdown files - DON'T 
send me your rate or summary or dupe sheets.  DO add your state to the 
top of the file.  i.e., Add "CQ WW CW 1995, N0AX, WA" as the first line 
of the file.  I'm looking for data from CQ WW 95, ARRL DX 96, and CQ WPX 
SSB 96.

Thanks in advance!
