So I couldn't resist checking goratings.org to see what it thinks of Cho Chikun. It's interesting to me how the elo rating changes link up to titles. Otake won the Gosei away from Cho Chikun in August 1980, But Cho fought back, taking the Meijin from Otake that winter. It is during this Meijin match, specifically in [url=http://www.go4go.net/go/games/sgfview/10888]game 5, that Cho Chikun takes #1 in the world away from Otake Hideo according to goratings. (He plays his first two moves on the 3-3 points this game, and wins with a game-ending two-step ko). Game 4 of that series was the "no result" due to the game recorder making a mistake.
