To put that in perspective--- in the recent CQ's report of WPX SSB results
(March '98, p. 17), it's mentioned that some 525 logs contained about
45,000 different calls... of which just under 24,000 WERE UNIQUE OR BUSTED!
What does that tell us about the quality of operator/typist/logger or
dependence on someone else's spots??
