cq endlessly. Why does the USA always get "punished"? There are lots 
more hams in EU now then ever. The scores show that it was a pretty good 
contest over there./

Mike,

Look at K5TR's breakdown from his 3830 post :

K 2 12 187 164 253 64 682 25.1

VE 9 24 62 135 142 10 382 14.0


JA 0 1 191 29 122 1 344 12.6


160 80 40 20 15 10 Total Pct 
--------------------------------------------------------------------- 
North America 22 64 303 351 457 106 1303 47.9 South America 7 22 40 68 
117 104 358 13.2 Europe 1 14 103 124 158 5 405 14.9 Asia 0 1 203 35 125 
1 365 13.4 Africa 4 10 19 11 30 9 83 3.0 Oceania 1 11 91 21 69 15 208 
7.6 -------------------------------------------------------------- Total 
35 122 759 610 956 240 2722

682 of his QSO's (25%) were worth ZERO points ! 14% were with VE. Only 
12% with JA.

Almost 1/2 of his total QSO's were with North America.

I would sure like to see the breakdown like this from a station that 
operated in EU. I bet 75% or more of their QSO's were with other EU 
stations.
