[CQ-Contest] RE: lotw revisited

[Barry]

I just ran the stats on my lotw logs.  Have 87K QSOs entered, 2.6K 
QSLs, mostly contest QSOs.
When I imported the LOTW report into DX4WIN, I got a number of errors 
(Error:Callsign=Empty, Band=Empty, Mode=Empty), so this working from 
what did import correctly. Also the State info did not import, so 
can't do a WAS analysis:
DXCC cfmd on LOTW:
Mixed 85
Phone 55
CW     68
RTTY  47

Today I checked/downloaded my results on L.O.T.W. The majority, 
probably 75%, 
of my QSO's submitted were from contests. It has been pointed out 
before, on 
this list, those are the easiest QSO's to upload because 99% of the 
contest 
community uses computers for logging. I have uploaded 5K+ QSO's

The argument has been made that it is more time consuming for DX 
stations to 
get documents for certificates and it will take longer for positive 
results. 
With that in mind here are my WAS statistics:

WAS
SUBMITTED
Mixed            50

CW                50

Mixed            23
Phone              0
CW                23

I'm curious if my results are above/below average.
