         I just looked at my log checking reports for both CQ 
WWs.  Note "copy error" for AF6FU below::

         Although meaningless since there are zero points involved, 
what does "copy error" mean?  My log entry shows:
QSO: 28470 PH 2011-10-29 2110 W4ZV          59  5      JR1IJV        59  25
QSO: 28484 PH 2011-10-29 2112 W4ZV          59  5      AF6FU         59  03
QSO: 28484 PH 2011-10-29 2112 W4ZV          59  5      AF6FU         59  03
QSO: 28484 PH 2011-10-29 2112 W4ZV          59  5      VE6AX         59  04
AF6FU is clearly a dupe but what would cause the "copy error" 
indication in the report?  AF6FU is listed as being in CA so I don't 
think it was an incorrect zone.
