You have to score 100% to win anything? Once you complete a quiz and on the sweepstakes rules no where does it say that. Or is that just for the swag bags?

Read the rules again, it's pretty clear.

What a surprise I got when I found that I had won an Icom duel band D star hand held. As I only have an old 2 Metre only hand held at the moment it will come in very handy. I must say that I always enjoy doing the Trivia Quiz, a lot more fun than doing a crossword!
Just to prove that you don't need 100% I think the best I have done is 80%. As a lot of the questions relate to FCC rules and American call signs, as a VK I don't think that's too bad!
When I first turn on my computer, after checking my emails, I always visit the QRZ.com page. I find QRZ provides a host of entertaining and informative information.
Many than's to QRZ and Icom.

Congratulations! I agree that this contest is fun and more entertaining than crossword puzzles.
Thank you for sharing news of your good fortune.
Boy 25 years of QRZ!
This website and the internet in general has certainly been a game changer for ham radio!
Congrats to QRZ too .

Wow.... I recall reading at the end of the quiz that it states it doesn't matter the score to win. I was just verifying that it was only for the swag kits because of what KF7WIS wrote:

"Congratulations also to Gregory Van Scott, WZ2n, and Michelle Schackow, N8ORG who will each receive a DX Engineering Swag Kit, including ball cap, umbrella, mug, pocket pad and pen. These swag kits will be given away weekly and the winners will be chosen from the pool of individuals who have scored a 100% on any one of our daily quizzes."

Swag, wag. I know I won't get any, which is OK. I've yet to get 100% and never likely to.
It's just fun to take the quiz and see how many I did better than.
Kinda scares me how bad some of the rest of you are compared to me. I expect better from all you all.

I thought score didn't matter? Maybe that was said to prevent cheating but the cat's out of the bag now. I suspect overall scores will be improving.
