[VHFcontesting] Rover High Scores by Region; CQWW VHF Contest

[curtis roseman]

Fellow VHF Contesters: 

We now have a table of all-time high scores by region for rovers in the CQ July contest.   You can access it from this page:  
http://home.woh.rr.com/wpx/Records.html

Up until recently it was not possible to produce such a table because all of the published results did not include location information for rovers.   Thanks to some prodding from N0DQS, and some digging for data by W1XX and K9JK, we now have all the necessary information.  So, you can now view all-time high scores by region for all entry categories in this contest.  

Two notes:   

I like to list high scores by region, because various parts of North American, and the world, have very different potentials for high scores.  If you want to see who has the highest overall scores, simply scanning the tables will allow you to do so. 

Secondly,  every time I announce an update of various records or high scores,  several people contact me asking about rovers.  Most are quite polite, but a few have accused me of being anti-rover, and a couple have been down-right nasty.    I am not anti-rover.  

It is not possible to list section records for rovers, because there are no section records for rovers.!  Also, it is not possible to list all-time high rover scores by region, because of changing rules in the past that have made comparisons over the full time period impossible.   It would be possible to list rover high scores by region over a more limited time period, but I have not done so.

73, and good luck in the June contest
