[CQ-Contest] WPX Records Updated

[Randy Thompson K5ZD]

Have you ever wondered what the record score is for your country in the WPX
Contest?  Or for your call area?  Or the Rookie overlay category on 10
meters? Or the multi-single category for Kazahkstan?

Records represent the historical high water marks for a contest.  Records
may be the result of a great operator, a great station, fantastic
conditions, or a combination. No matter the reason, they provide a target
that is begging to be broken.  Since only one person can hold a given
record, owning one is a source of pride and accomplishment.

One of the advantages of having more than 25 years of WPX Contest results
available in the online score database is that we can automatically generate
listings of all time score records. The new records page allows you to look
up records at the World, Continent, Country, and Call Area levels. For each
region, the records are shown for all possible categories for both CW and
SSB.

Start searching for records by visiting http://www.cqwpx.com/records.htm
 
Select the geographic region of interest from the drop down list at the top
of the page and then click on submit.  The drop down list includes every
country from which a log has been submitted.

If you want to learn more about a particular record, click on the hyperlink
for the category to see a list of the all time high scores for that category
and geographic region.

There are a very large number of category records that are available to the
first person to submit a log!  Spend a few minutes checking out your region
and set your goals for the upcoming WPX Contests!
