[Cwo] Calls worked in CWO

[Marshall "Matt" Thomas, WX5S]

Oh that could very well be.

I've made a number of reports for Al (AD6E).
For one of these, I took AD6E's call histogram report
and inputted those callsigns into a database.

Then for each callsign, I ran my approximate callsign matcher
against that database.  The result is similar to what you would
see perhaps in a logging program for N+1 calls, but my algorithms
are smarter and take into account other things like transpositions:
W5ABC vs W5BAC, etc. This is "real world", "fumble finger" stuff
that the average logging program cannot find.

I ran all callsigns against the QRZ database in another report.

I'm sure that there will be more CWO reports after CQP is done.
But I will have some really heavy lifting to do for CQP.
