Or, on second thought, maybe you need VE, AK, HI, Puerto Rico or US
Virgin Islands on a particular band. Those are all ARRL Section
multipliers in Sweepstakes and also DXCC entities!!! 

Do NOT forget the easy ones!!!

Other than that, I know some of you are also chasing WAS, 5BWAS or a Triple Play WAS. This is an EXCELLENT contest to grab some states you need and if CW or digital is not your bag here is a great phone contest. The exchange is unique so brush up on that. Also be aware that you can only work a station one time regardless of the band so if you work a very rare W5ZN in Arkansas on 80 meters you cannot work that station on 40 meters, or any other band, during the contest so you'll need to find another station for a state you may need on multiple bands.
