[PaQSO] Bonus station score per band/mode?

Hmmmmmm....if one is a mobile or a rover station--then one could work
the "bonus" stations in every county entered--times once for each mode,
times each band.  Thus--I would not need but a few contacts in each county
(10) to run up one whale of a score.

It's not my party, but frankly I think the bonus station concept needs to 
be studied.

Had fun and didn't freeze to death, the old van didn't let us down, and
I'll probably not come to my senses and stay home in the warm and dry next 
year. About 650 Q's, no idea how many sections, etc, but no sweep.

I agree with AD8J on the mobile freqs.  There were a lot of big fixed
stations on "35" or so, perhaps they didn't see the note in the rules.
It does make it nice to have a freq that is a little clear for mobiles.
I generally didn't operate near "35" as a rover, because my situation
was more like a base than a mobile.
