As a carpet-bagging mobile who has participated in several PAQPs, I would
vote for keeping things status quo. I come down to PA because I enjoy mobile
contesting and the scenery is spectacular this time of year. 

 

The creation of summary sheets for each county doesn't bother me one bit,
now that I know exactly how to do it. Just create the composite summary,
save it, and edit another copy for each county. The only thing that needs to
be changed is the county name, number of QSOs for each mode, and whether or
not you worked more than 10 QSOs there. N1MM provides all the necessary
information in their Statistics window (you are using N1MM aren't you?).
Creating my summaries for 12 counties only took about 15 minutes of
distracted work.

 

Two days is fine with me. I wouldn't be able to activate half of the
counties I did without the second day.

 

Changing anything in the scoring can have an unexpected result; county and
party record scores would fall by the dozens for no other reason than
getting more points for the same number of QSOs.

 

One change I would like to see; let me be a bonus station. Everyone would
want to work me!
