Yes, that is right.  I remember once at P49Y, I had just come on a band and 
was called by several stations including a 30 over 9 East Coast Multi.  I 
was about to come back to the loud multi when a bit off frequency I could 
barely copy "JTI".  So I came back first to W6JTI, just so I could tell  him 
after the contest that his QRP signal from CA had beaten out a big East 
Coast Multi in a pile-up.!

Interesting analysis, but I would add another factor to the 
operator-dependent factors: CW pitch. These days, most of the signals will 
be zero-beat with a packet-spot frequency. Going slightly off frequency 
often nabs the QSO.
