Here's a new twist...

Today I looked at the results on the web for the January VHF contest. 
We've all had our scores reduced at times and wondered just where we 
screwed up.  Well, my score had INCREASED by 150 points!

It wasn't hard to figure out what had happened.  When I went through my 
logs before submitting them I found that I had 3 dupes.  I eliminated 
the dupes in scoring my log, but the League requests that you leave the 
dupes in the log and they will calculate the correct score.  I did that, 
and as a result, they included the dupes and increased my score to 
account for it.

So much for their sophisticated log checking software.  Wanna increase 
your score?  Just add in a bunch of dupes!
