[CQ-Contest] Penalty Blather!

[i4jmy at iol.it]

When in doubt if someone got your call correct, and a good contester 
often feels it, take the time and ask your correspondant if he has 
logged your call correct or not.
If big logs with an extremely low percentage error exist, then it means 
that who has more errors is doing something wrong and that corrspondant 
wrong logging or QSO removal isn't a dramatical and frequent event for 
someone.
Penalty exist and it's good they are heavy to be a real deterrent.
Big incorrect logs like sometimes happened 20 yaers ago doesn't win any 
more and quantity alone isn't an acceptable feature to determine 
ability.
