Ok - since you asked.
I was looking at the IARU results and decided to
compare the published scores to the scores reported
on 3830 after the contest. I wish I had a more compleate
list of claimed scores. None the less I think you
will find this intresting. It is too bad that
we will not get to see the CW SS scores until about
mid May. It will give us all something to talk
about at Dayton I am sure.
Kind of interesting - esp the ones over 10% change.
Also I wonder about the ones that show no change.
The listing is in order of score from the 3830 scores.
If you look closely you can see that several stations
changed positions in the standings. I am sure you will
see this in the SS as well - maybe even more of it
as SS scores are usually very close.
There are some errors in the process - but overall
it is great to see the ARRL is really checking
logs for a change.
Important notes:
1. n2ic's log was "re-scored" as if he had done the contest
from the east coast. He is in Colorado. It did not
change his standing. But his % change in score went up
as a result.
2. VE7NTT sent in a paper log and thus was not checked.
I am told Gary won an award for clean logs a
the last WRTC - and he is known for having
very clean logs. Other 0% change logs would
be so for the same reason. It is my understanding
that in the SS every effort is made to get a
disk or file if the person used a computer but
sent in a paper log. They are also entering
hand logs - so they can have them in electronic format.
So this will not happen in the SS or future contests.
3. There are some other scores that changed up - this
can happen if the 3830 listing was incorrect or
if someone scored their log incorrectly. These
most likely account for the negitive % changes.
