[UK-CONTEST] CQWW Results?]

[Peter Hobbs]

Thanks "guys" (including Brian) for the background and well done! My

65 (5.6%) duplicates
22 (1.9%) calls copied incorrectly
4 (0.3%) not in log

ended up with a posted loss of 13.8%, largely due to a couple of double 
mults.  My only excuse for this abysmal performance is electing to go 
160m single band.  However on checking, more than half was due to the 
(already discounted) dupes, so in the end I "only" lost 6.3% of what SD 
had me down for.  So headline figures can be misleading.

In '63 (found it!) all entrants had received a hard copy of the full 
results in the mail by June, so I guess progress is somewhat relative . . .

73, Peter G3LET
