For me, what my fingers type in the log sometimes doesn't match what my ears hear and/or my mouth speaks.  IOW, self-inflicted errors.73,Ed W0YK

Overall I am pretty happy with my performance but amwondering about the growing list of "incorrect calls" that I have this year.I am always looking to improve. I am 'about' where I am every big contest. 1.4% error and 4.7% scorereduction.  I have seen it a little less, but this was a long test at nearly3900 Q's It's the list of 38 "incorrect calls" I have that I am curious about.  Imostly ran and was unassisted, so I need to work on copying callscorrectly(that much is obvious) . Some calls had more than one typo/error inthem but as the runner I sent these busted calls back to the caller andnobody corrected me?! Is this because they are not affected(score-wise) if I butcher their call?(am I understanding that correctly?) Anyone else seeing this trend?
