[RTTY] 2013 roundup results

[Vladimir Sidarau]

Hector,

An explanation why your correspondents have logged sequential numbers of past QSOs is simple. For sure you were running, you can verify it by checking your log. Then, during your run you had quite a pile-up. Calling you time by time, the callers have started by putting serial numbers you have sent to somebody else into the respective window of their logger. But when one of them has finally worked you, he simply forgot to apply a respective increment (Ctr-U in N1MM) so that the number in the window matches the number you have sent to this particular caller. 
But the explanation is just an explanation. I am afraid, not much you can do to prevent this problem. The only suggestion is to make the overall exchange shortest possible so that you can work faster and the pile-up does not build up. Obviously when there is no permanent pile-up and you work just station by station, your callers will only copy serial numbers sent to them, and them only.

73,

Vladimir VE3IAE

Like you after saw HI3TEJ score  I was in the idea to be in the 2nd or 3rd place in the cat,  in advance I know that win will be very unlikely from my location and  the predominance of  good Stations from the Caribbean like  Teddy HI3TEJ , I was focus  to  make a  new Mexican record  for this category, I found in my LCR that lost 3 mult one of the is HI3TEJ  by NIL, the 2 others my error in the call or exchange.
I remember   calling him  in my S&P  and get my report 1101, my first QSO in that band change My score reduction was  the highest from the 4 RU participation ,  5.2% I have  this notes, maybe some one can give me a light from his perspective
in the ---Stations Copying Your Exchange Incorrectly--    this time 23 , 6 copy the sequential number from the past QSO 
checking the others  LCR show similar numbers in that area,  my idea is that I can be the cause of that when
get no answer from "list" of calls received and pass to the next  or  maybe in the   TU   NOW --

the good thing was that 1 one station copy  my call  incorrectly  from an average  of 3-7 in the past

Any light  to  get the idea  what happen  will be appreciated, the idea always is to improve

So it sounds like my score reduction of 2.2% fits in with the “norm”, with the usual mix of NIL and mis-copied exchanges, etc.....I came in second in the DX low power category, but was surprised to see a big drop from one of the top competitors....HI3TEJ posted a claimed score of 170982 (first place) but after log checking came in third at 145936, that’s a fairly significant drop, wonder what happened there?
