[CQ-Contest] CQWW LCR's and log scrubbing

[W0MU Mike Fatchett]

Are we ready to accept that we have a cheating problem in Contesting it 
is not a small problem now?

I would assume in this case that CQ can go over their extensive over the 
air recordings and attempt to pull the facts together.  I would hope 
that you would provide this information to CQ so that they can look at 
the proper time periods.
