2006 WRTC Final Results

Vsak si lahko ustvari svoje mnenje ....

Dear WRTC 2006 Friends:

This report is also available on our page for download as Release 059/06

This memorandum is to record an anomaly discovered by the Judging and
Log-Checking Committees in the course of adjudication of the WRTC 2006
competition and the action taken as a result, and to offer a
recommendation for future WRTCs.

Immediately after the end of the competition at 1200 UTC on 9 July,
electronic logs began arriving from participants in the IARU HF World
Championship from all over the world for inclusion in the master
database. Thanks to the extraordinary cooperation of the international
contesting community, in a matter of hours we received more than 1,000
logs for use in adjudication of the 46 WRTC logs.

When initial trial discrepancy reports for the 46 WRTC stations were
run, four logs were found to have unusually high numbers of "unique"
QSOs. (A "unique" QSO is one with a station that appears in few other
logs - it is not literally unique and the appropriate threshold for
labeling a QSO as "unique" may vary from one contest to another. In the
case of WRTC 2006 there were, as noted above, more than 1,000 logs used
to determine "uniques" - that is, we did not limit our comparison only
to other WRTC logs.)

In three of the four cases the reason for the high number of "uniques"
was clearly that the nationality of the WRTC station had been identified
and communicated within the home country of the team. The three logs in
this category were PW5B (SP7GIQ and SP2FAX), PT5P (DL6FBL and DL2CC),
and PT5N (9A8A and 9A5K). In some cases, multiple QSOs clearly had been
made by the same station under different call signs. This is contrary to
the spirit of WRTC, which is to provide a level playing field for all.
QSOs that are available to one team but not to any of the others tilt
the playing field. The purpose of WRTC is to determine the best
operators, not who has the most friends back home. At the same time, it
must be said that the WRTC competitors do not do anything wrong unless
they do something that is intended to identify themselves. They are not
expected to disguise their voices or their accents. So, in past WRTCs
these "national uniques" have not been deleted from competitors' logs.

The fourth case, PT5L (YT6A and YT6T), was quite different. In this case
there were hundreds of "uniques" with call signs from many countries,
early all of them in Europe, beginning about two hours into the event.
Not only that, but many of these "uniques" showed up on several bands,
in some cases on both CW and SSB. Only rarely did these "uniques" show
up in any other logs. The referee, G3XTT, confirmed that he had heard
nothing suspicious or unusual. Most of the call signs were not familiar
to the judges as appearing in CW contests, but this was apparent only
when the "uniques" were identified as such and this was not especially
noticeable when they were scattered among valid QSOs.

The audio from this station had been recorded, so it was possible to
confirm that the QSOs had in fact taken place. It appeared to the
judges, from listening to the recording while examining annotated log
extracts identifying the "uniques," that there was a small number of
stations, probably more than one, feeding "phantom QSOs" to PT5L. Again,
however, this was apparent only in retrospect.

The motive for feeding these "phantom QSOs" was and is unknown. PT5L had
only operated CW up to the time the "uniques" began to appear; we have
no evidence that the identity of the operators had been communicated to
anyone prior to that time, either by the operators themselves or by
anyone else.
Identifying "uniques" is a standard part of the adjudication of any
contest. Detecting QSOs added to a log "from the Callbook" was one of
the very first objectives when computer analysis was first performed on
contest logs. Anyone familiar with UBN or LCR reports - in other words,
any active contester - would realize that adding such QSOs to the PT5L
log was bound to come to the attention of the judges. Therefore, in the
absence of any evidence to the contrary, the judges could not conclude
that the operators of PT5L were implicated in any way. They had to know
that such manipulation would be detected and that there could be no
acceptable explanation for so many people choosing, independently of one
another, to work only PT5L from among more than 1,000 stations active on
the bands during the contest.

It seems much more likely that the "phantom QSOs" were intended to be
sabotage, either of the PT5L operators specifically (although this would
have required knowing who they were) or of a WRTC station selected at
random. Such behavior, by amateur operators outside the WRTC event
itself, is both reprehensible and illegal and deserves to be thoroughly
investigated. However, doing so within the time frame of the WRTC event
was impossible.

Thus, the problem facing the judges was how to deal appropriately with
the situation within the context of WRTC itself. It was decided to
reduce the threshold for labeling a QSO as "unique" to a relatively low
number of logs and to delete from all 46 logs, without penalty, all
"unique" QSOs. Doing so resulted in the deletion of, at one extreme,
just 3 QSOs from a log containing more than 1,900 QSOs to, at the other
extreme, the deletion of 240 QSOs from the PT5L log of more than 2,300
QSOs. Most logs lost about 15 QSOs. No doubt a few of these were valid
QSOs (others are busted calls where there is insufficient evidence to
label them as busted). However, deleting them is very unlikely to change
the relative positions of any teams with "normal" logs and definitely
did not affect the top three positions, which is the principal concern
of the judges, other than to move PT5L out of 3rd place. PT5L moved from
3rd to 11th place, some of this movement the consequence of error rate.
(If the intent of the "phantoms" was to hurt the PT5L entry they
certainly succeeded; the operators spent more than two hours working
stations for which they received no credit.)

The impact was much greater on the three logs with significant numbers
of "national uniques" (which were also a very minor factor in the PT5L
log - among the 240 "uniques" are just 9 "national uniques" that showed
up very late in the contest after the operators were identified on the
BalkanDX Yahoo forum at 1024 UTC). PW5B lost 125 "uniques" and moved
down five positions, from 11th to 16th, some of this movement the
consequence of error rate. PT5P lost 76 "unique" QSOs but actually moved
up one position in the final results because their error rate was lower
than average. PT5N lost 67 "uniques" and moved down one position.

While it is unfortunate that the operators of these four stations all
spent time making QSOs for which they received no credit, the judges and
log-checkers firmly believe that the appropriate remedy was applied to
correct an unanticipated situation. Disqualification would have been
inappropriate in that there is no proof - indeed, there is no evidence
at all - that any of the operators were at fault. On the other hand,
allowing "phantom QSOs," once detected as such, to be credited also
would be inappropriate and would make the whole WRTC event pointless.
The same standard was applied to all 46 logs.

The judges and log-checkers recommend that in future WRTCs, all
"uniques" should be removed from logs without penalty and that this
policy should be announced in advance. All stations operating in the
IARU HF World Championship should be encouraged to work all WRTC
stations, without favoritism and without using more than one call sign
from any station (unless family members share a station).

We also recommend that "unique" not be precisely defined in advance. The
judges must be allowed discretion to determine the appropriate threshold
for "uniques" for a given event, as this will depend upon the number of
logs available for crosschecking and other factors.

While we regret that this attempt to manipulate the WRTC results
occurred - for whatever reason the perpetrators may have had - we are
pleased to have detected it and to have been able to take appropriate
corrective action.

The judges would especially like to thank Larry "Tree" Tyree, N6TR, for
his analysis and Phil Goetz, N6ZZ for his invaluable contribution in
uploading the WRTC logs and maintaining the communication link between
the judges in Florianopolis and Tree at his home in Oregon. Trey
Garlough, N5KO, also contributed significantly to the log-checking
process from his home in California, as did Larry Hammel, K5OT, on-site.

Danilo živ ,

mnenje , dokler je tekmovanja in tekmovalcev se bo goljufalo.
Včasih manj včasih bolj sofisticirano.
Tebe in Tadeja se spominjam s WRTC 2000 kjer smo vas gostili. Vsi smo bili prepričani vključno z sodnikom da ste "pometli" z konkurenco, pol pa

Še sedaj se rad spominjam Trstelja, manj uvrstitve.
Nama so brisali znak enega od domačinov, teško se mu je bilo skriti z močnim signalom v lokalu.

Na hitro so DSQ S58A & S55OO še pred tekmo, mogoče bi ista načelnost pomagala tudi v teh primerih in na naslednjem wrtc ne bi bilo "plasiranih" unique. Problem ostaja samo še v primeru, če te nekdo hoče diskvalificirati z temi phantom unique znaki. Ampak saj se vse snema ?!

Zgornji DX Cluster spotovi so identificirali nacionalne time. Prvi je napacno zadel 9A6XX/DJ1YFK.

S55M je pomagal identifikaciji S5 in 9A timov na HRS webu. 9A8A/9A5K tim na #7 mestu je zbral kar 55 domacih postaj vkljucno z UKV-jasi.

Nemci in Poljaki so imeli veliko pomoci v najboljsi tradiciji njihovih HQ postaj s stotinjak “zemljaka” v logu.

Najslabsi vtis je pustila ekipa YT6A/YT6T. Zaradi “napake” z EU prestevanjem pik so bili v tekocih rezultatih med 14 in 25 mestom in potem nenadoma skocili na #3. V logu so imeli okrog 240 postaj, ki jih niso delali drugi WRTC udelezenci. Teh postaj ni bilo niti v 1.000 e-logov, ki so prisli na ARRL u prvih 6 urah. Samo 16 unikatnih YU so imeli. Ni jasno in tezko dokazljivo, ali je nekdo namenoma motil YT6A ali je podajanje QSO bilo ze vnaprej dogovorjeno?

Sodniska komisija je na osnovi teh 4 primerov odlocila da umakne vse unikatne zvocno zapisane zveze pri vseh 46 tekmovalnih ekipah.

9A so padli za eno mesto, YT6A je koncal na #11, vseeno na najboljsem YU WRTC plasmaju! S50A/S59AA ocitno nismo dovolj pomagali

Tokratno pregledovanje dnevnikov s pomocjo N6TR je bilo odlicno. Napaka z DL6FBL na Bledu bi bila takoj odpravljena!

To je moj prispevek v srbo-slovenscini na S5ham. Veliko vec angleskih sem poslal na WRTC reflektor. V srpscini na Sky-cc.

Vsaka čast fantom, ki delajo tekmovanja pošteno in s srcem !
Saj ni važno doseženo mesto, važno da se imaš dobro in da uživaš v svojem hobiju.
Čestitke vsem udeležencem WRTC 2006 - od prvega do 46. !
Pri meni so vsi v logu, samo ne vem, če sem tudi jaz pri njih

Opiši nam še sijajen vmesnik avtorja Siniše, YT1NT ki sta ga uporabljala Rale in Djurica izdelan prav za ta namen ? Še Amerikanci se niso mogli načuditi SČG tehniki :

Jeff, K1ZM:
The radio B operator merely had to step on his footswitch and Radio A AUTOMATICALLY went to the desired frequency on the second VFO, it even went to the OTHER MODE if the desired mult or station was on a different mode being used by the RUN OP - and an optical sensor checked the AMP to see if it was on the SAME BAND - or on a different band that the radio B operator wanted to work. If on the same band, the amp remained engaged, if the target station was on a DIFFERENT BAND, the amp was sent to standby mode - and the B operator called the target station BAREFOOT for three calls - after which a decision would be made to bring the amp on-line to the new band.

I listened to an hour of the log file and almost every radio B qso that I heard was made barefoot - rarely was the amp required to be switched.

As soon as the RADIO B qso was made, everything was AUTOMATICALLY switched back to the original radio A settings - and the whole process took about 1 second to make the call, another second to make the Q (in terms of TRANSMIT time where the radio B op was actually interrupting the A ops rate) - and then the B operator would go on tuning for the next one.

Out of each page of QSO's - black ones were from the RUN op, blue qso's were from the B operator and each page I saw had from 10-12 qso's contributed by the second op. Listening to this all happen IN STEREO on the recorded file, it was a wonder to observe as, at times, two qso's were ALMOST occurring at the same time - but the thing was totally interlocked - as the B op had total priority and took control as soon as the A op's vox tripped out.

If you think this is pretty slick - then picture this. There's more! On 40M CW, team YT6A had at least 25 notch filters, each about 5 khz wide, which were tracked in synch with the VFO on radio A when on 40CW - such that the correct notch filter was switched in automatically by means of relays as the radio A VFO was tuned up and down the band.

Well - there was even more I saw - but I think it can safely be said that the technical design and automation present in the YT6A design was the slickest I ever saw - and will probably send all the rest of us scrambling in preparation for the NEXT WRTC.

Zacelo je s preprostim YT1NT CMOS vezjem za interlock dva radija pri dostopu do skupnega linearnega ojacevalca. Objavljeno na BalkanDX s S56A popravki

Potem so naredili RX BPF, ki so izdrzali 1 kW TX moci kar je omogocalo nemoteno stalno poslusanje na radio B. Kristalni filteri za 7 MHz so ze prej poceni naroceni v IMP Beograd. Podobni se dobijo v DL za 125 Euro.

Vse to je krmilil PIC. YT1NT dela veliko na industrijskih krmilnikih in ima ogromno merilne opreme. Pa sse "grdo" navado, da vse prej izracuna. Nekaj casa je bil na zacasnem delu kot VE3EA pri RIM. Zdaj ziba hcero. YT6T tudi! YT6A je lastnik podjetja s TV oddajniki. Trenutno okupiran z Montenegro DX-ped. Verjetno ga ponovno obiscem za CQ WW RTTY.

mnenje , dokler je tekmovanja in tekmovalcev se bo goljufalo. Včasih manj včasih bolj sofisticirano.

Mario tnx YT1NT info.

Nisem hotel odpirati nove teme glede poštenosti v tekmovanjih čeprav bi bil forum hitro poln. Majhne nacije smo po obstoječih pravilih v primeru IARU HQ bolj udarjene kot velike. Koliko S5 QSOs se pojavlja v letošnjem S50HQ logu ??

Dear Fellow Contesters,
I would say the time to change rules for HQ stations in IARU contest has come. It is crystal clear ,if one reads the link below( of course, if he can understand Russian ) http://www.qrz.ru/webnews/3441.htm

In IARU 2005 -
It is NOT normal DA0HQ to have over 9000 DL QSOs out of total of 19 000.
It is NOT normal to have SN0HQ been called by 1200 different SP callsigns
who used JUST ONE STATION to make these QSOs. 528 of these 1200 SP operators worked SN0HQ on all 6 bands form JUST ONE STATION.
SN0HQ had 8 000 QSO's with SP stations ,too ! (info is translated from the link in Russain given above )
As a normal person I would NOT call this a fair competition although accroding to currently printed rules of IARU contest this is NOT a formal rules violation. If we have the same approach in LZ we would ask 1/3 of all 3000 LZ hams to go to our central radio club station and to stand on a queue to work LZ7HQ station on 6 bands . I would kindly suggest to organizing committee of IARU contest to take action and stop this nonsense. At this time I can not suggest myself a solution of this problem,but such actions by some HQ stations definetly makes efforts of other HQ stations useless.

Ali si zasledil kaksno resno promocijo S50HQ? Internet, TV, CQ ZRS?

Pravkar opazujem zalostna dogajanja v 9A Tesla 150 12-urnem tekmovanju. Glavne HRS postaje 9A150NT iz Smiljana ni. Ujel sem 3 x 9A in S59ZZ. Za zabavo sem pobral kopico DR/DQ2006 na 80 m CW. Jutri bom malo "dirkal" na 50 in 144 MHz.

... Nisem hotel odpirati nove teme glede poštenosti v tekmovanjih čeprav bi bil forum hitro poln. ...

Nekako nisem hotel verjeti, da se dejansko dogaja to, kar se. No, tokrat pa sem kar nekaj časa poslušal eno od "ta velkih" HQ postaj, kako mu en in isti glas šiba raznorazne nacionalne znake - po spisku. Po kakih 15 QSO-tih sem se naveličal, in odpujsal dalje... Škoda, ko nimam zadeve posnete.
