Actually it was a bit worse - those 172 miscopies did not include the 15 folks
who miscopied my callsign. All but one of whom had me in zone 4.
Meanwhile, I hope to work lots of you in the Florida QSO Party on the last
weekend of April, when I still will be in Florida. The snowbird northerly
migration will begin shortly after that.

Or "incorrect exchanges".
Apparently the "5NN" as a cut number for "Please copy" does not always work. I
had 172 of my 640 raw QSOs "copy" me in Zone 4. Not in Zone 5 in Florida, where
I did the contest.
I was QRP, which might have made things a bit tougher. However, I can notice a
slight difference in timing when operating. The folks who change the prefilled
"4" to "5" take a second or so to do that. I suspect most of the 172 who put me
in zone 4 probably took a millisecond or two to confirm.
