Correction to CQWW CW 2020 Results

After the results for the CQ WW CW 2020 Contest were published, feedback from a few stations uncovered a small scoring error in our software. This error caused some stations not to get zone multiplier credit if the only zone 5 station they worked was in the Canadian Maritimes. We said it was a small error!

There were 817 scores that went up (out of 9103 entries). Most gained one extra zone multiplier. We want everyone to get full credit for the score they earned, so we have updated the online database with the corrected scores.

The log checking reports have also been updated. You can see the revised LCR using the same encrypted link you received in your email.

We apologize for the error and appreciate your understanding.

2020 CQ WW CW Raw Scores Available

We are happy to announce that the raw scores for the 2020 CQ WW CW Contest are now available. This includes 9001 entries received by 1800z December 6, 2020.

http://www.cqww.com/raw.htm?mode=cw

The raw scores are the calculated score before any log checking or other adjustments are made. These scores may not match what you submitted exactly as our country file may be different than yours and you may have some QSOs where the call/country could not be determined.

These are NOT the final results.  Scores may change by 5-10% (or more) depending on the log checking.  Final results will appear in the April 2021 issue of CQ Magazine.

Please submit any questions about the raw scores at: https://cqww.com/contact.
