If you receive one right and one wrong, it really is 2 out of 3, not 1 
out
of 2, since the a-priori probability should include the known (correct)
callsign :-).

BTW, my normal practice is to log JA as Zone 25, even if I print Zone 26.
I just feel too stupid asking a JA for his zone number!

Also (ahem! this one may not be kosher) as an S&P, I would often print
an exchange prior to my own QSO, and I use that to aid what I log, too.
Is that "skill," or is that cheating?
