[CQ-Contest] Mistakes in MASTER CALLSIGN DATABASE

[Guy Olinger]

A better way would be to manually add callsigns ONLY from the published
results YOURSELF. You could make it from your own logs, but the
published results have been UBN'd. It makes more sense to only kick up
call signs from active contesters who submit logs.

Hmmm, but then you might recognize them yourself without the function
key...
