[CQ-Contest] WW CW wrong Zone sent?

[Zack Widup]

Hi Jay,

We are all human, no one is perfect, and as long as you entered in the 
correct class despite what you sent, I think the ARRL would be forgiving.

In my earlier days of contesting I once got confused between the CQ zones 
and IARU zones for one contest and sent the wrong one.
