[CQ-Contest] CQWW CW LCR "incorrect call"

[jimk8mr at aol.com]

 Actually it was a bit worse - those 172 miscopies did not include the 15 folks who miscopied my callsign.  All but one of whom had me in zone 4.
Meanwhile, I hope to work lots of you in the Florida QSO Party on the last weekend of April, when I still will be in Florida. The snowbird northerly migration will begin shortly after that.

  Or "incorrect exchanges".

Apparently the "5NN" as a cut number for "Please copy" does not always work. I had 172 of my 640 raw QSOs "copy" me in Zone 4. Not in Zone 5 in Florida, where I did the contest. 

I was QRP, which might have made things a bit tougher. However, I can notice a slight difference in timing when operating. The folks who change the prefilled "4" to "5" take a second or so to do that. I suspect most of the 172 who put me in zone 4 probably took a millisecond or two to confirm.
