And let's not forget K3LR (effectively in Ohio) who is putting together a huge 
string of M/M wins..

K3LR is 2,000 miles closer to EU and AF than CA, WA, and OR, but about 500 miles farther than W1/3. The fact that you consider that proof that distance doesn't matter shows that you don't understand the problem! Yes, K3LR (who is on the PA/OH border) is at a disadvantage. I lived in Chicago and was a member of SMC, whose newsletter is called "The Black Hole," in acknowledgement of this difference in propagation.
