Score Database now includes CW, all scores since 1995

I am pleased to announce that all scores for the CQ WPX CW/SSB contests since 1995 are now available in a searchable database on the www.cqwpx.com web site.

You can easily search the results of any year/mode to view scores by any combination of continent, country, category, or call.  Scores can be sorted by score, number of QSOs/mults, call, or club name.  Options are available to display operator lists, band breakdowns, and club names.

All available expanded QRM (soapbox) information is also available (access it through the results page).

I find that after many years of doing contests, they kind of blend together in my mind.  Looking at old results or line scores often brings back a flood of memories.  Maybe I am reminded of where I operated, the conditions for the weekend, or a particularly exciting QSO or band opening.  I hope you use the database of scores to generate your own memories.

I would like to request your help…

It was a very labor intensive process to collect and format the data so it can be presented in a consistent format.  I need your help with quality control.  Please visit http://www.cqwpx.com/score_db.htm and type your call into the special search box.  This will provide a listing of all of your WPX CW/SSB entries in the database.  Please confirm the calls, scores, and club information is correct.  If you find any errors, let me know.  Please provide enough information that I can research/confirm the correction.

Only 21 more days until the WPX SSB contest!
