Many years ago K1JX casually commented that contest scores improve 6%

A couple of years ago I did a quick analysis and discovered he was right!
There's clearly a difference, but the magnitude of the difference
probably depends on the contest. Quite a few years ago, N6ZFO, whose job
in pharama development included lots of statistics, did an analysis for
NCCC saying that 1 dB was good for 2.6% in ARRL Sweepstakes.
