Borrowing Jim's (N6IG) lead, here are the breakdowns for LP CW SS. I've
pasted his HP data at the bottom.

Notes: 

N4ZZ didn't have info on 3830 so no data there. Don finished 6th. Congrats
to VE7CC and VE4VV with NO QSO's lost. As you can see low power
sweepstakers are more accurate than their high powered counterparts.
Overall accuracy for LP was 1.90% while the mistake ridden high powered ops
who rely strictly on bone crushing brute force had an atrocious 1.92%. Did
you know that .02% of a billion dollars is $20,000. It does make a
difference. (No, I'm not a drug user, other than Dr. Pepper I never have
been, but I lost what was left of my mind doing income taxes).

Wonder if any of the above used paper logs and thus may have been
scrutinized a bit less fervently.

73, Matt--K7BG
