Finding a way is easy - create a handicap, just like in golf. Average out
scores of different areas over many contests over many years and come up
with a multiplication factor. Adjust the factor every year as more scores
become available. As time goes by the factors would become more and more
accurate, and could even be applied retroactively if desired. Easy.
The hard part is getting the stations in the geographically advantaged
areas to go along.
Every one else would think it's a good idea. :-)
