IARU 2007: 3200 logs.
I think IARU is the biggest 24 hour format contest, but 
the margin is less than 10%.
That is if we score the contest by counting the submitted logs.


IOTA 2007 logs are not available yet. 
However, top scoring single operator stations operate well 
over 2200 QSOs in the 24 hours of IOTA.
And that is using the more complex exchange of the IOTA,
including the IOTA reference numbers.

IOTA is maybe the most challenging contest of these, as the 
message exchange is more complicated.

There are different ways to score the contests.
RDXC lists also the number of different viable calls found
in the logs.
