I suggest entry categories next year.  This would eliminate the need for
scoring differently (1, 2, or 3 points/QSO depending on the tx power) and
level the playing field for all categories.  The way it stands now, a
20-watt station that has only a 6 dB advantage over a 5-watt station
might have twice as many QSOs but be trounced in score by the QRP
station.

Entry categories might be:

QRP (less than 5 watts - K1s & KX1s)

Medium (5 to 15 watts - K2s)

High (16 to 100 watts - K2/100s)

QRO (over 100 watts - w/amps)
