Hello Dominik,

 

Yes, thanks for the DARC listing.

 

Looks like GW0AAA/p lost 15 QSOs and one Mult, resulting in a 1.6% score
deduction in the DARC FD listing. Exactly the same effective % deduction as
Dave G3TBK/p.

 

Interesting stuff.

 

73 – Nigel G3TXF

Hi Nigel
 
I’m not the UK FD adjudicator but I have access to all logs. As soon as
Manfred, DK2OY, get’s his DL results out I can start putting the European
Region 1 FD results together which should be published on the DARC web-site
as well.
 
Please find attached the GW0AAA/P score and UBN. As you will see the
software was written in DL (DL6RAI & Co).

The software I’m using (the same is used in DL and I also adjudicate I and
PA) penalizes wrong calls only: a “C” in the 2nd last column. If you count
all wrong numbers you might add up to your 40+ deleted QSOs.
 
If you read “Korrektes Call: NO_CALL” in the UBN is was simply deleted
because it was a Unique and the serial number greater than 9.
 
I guess the “real” answer can only come from the RSGB.
