Can you do the same thing but for SSB?

There is one example I am familiar with where you can compare SO to SOA.  Go
to
http://www.cqww.com/searchbycall.htm?cl=k5zd

and look at the last 5 years of CW results.  Same station.  Same op.  Same
level of intensity.

To really tell the story, you have to look at the scores relative to other
local ops.  Say K1DG or K0DQ.  Then you see that use of Assistance adds
about 15% or so of an advantage in score.  That is at the top levels.  Need
more data to see how it impacts a casual or part time entry.

Maybe the un assisted ops are just better operators in the first place,
and do not need help to make bigger scores?

Is there records of great ops that never used assistance, and then
started using it but changed NOTHING else in the station,  and how and
did their scores change? or the other way around some high scoring
assisted stations that go un assisted, do their scores drop?

Too many variables to know if it helps or not unless stations that did
not suddenly do and visa versa.

Congrats John...

I've got a question... Based upon the scores you shared.... Is running
"Assisted" really helping the operators improve their scores? The
single op non-assisted are having higher scores. Why?  I've seen this
same thing in other contests too...  Seems to me that Assisted ops
would typically have higher scores than non-assisted ops....

I'm game for one operator type category....I compete against assisted
ops in many contests and still win...I just won another VAQP plaque.

As many of y'all know, I don't have a computer in the ham shack and
thoroughly enjoy contesting..Sometimes, I'll use a computer to log
phone contests, but typically run P&P logging. I send with a paddle
and keyer and use a mic (no voice memory keyer yet)..When you send
with a keyboard and F Keys..IMO it's not cw..it's another digital
mode... I hope we never get to a point where folks can't send with
their hand..... I do enjoy technology (all work week), so running
"techless" gives me a break from a computer screen. I never have to
reboot either... I have to admit I do work "single band" in most very
large contests to eliminate the dupes problem... I did my first "all
band" WPX in March and dupes were challenging with 400 Qs in my first
all band WPX effort. That new Extra ticket would have come in handy
during that one...
Gotta love QSO Parties..

I got lucky and have the second highest assisted score ever. I ran a
single radio and had a poor internet connection which became more of
a distraction than assistance. I would be way down the list if some
of the better operators such as W2SC, N5TJ, N6KT, etc operated this
category.
