Several years ago someone here used the term "expose yourself" as a
Sweepstakes strategy. In that writers terminology, it meant that he'd
periodically switch his run frequency to different neighborhoods on a
particular band. He'd run for awhile below .025, then for awhile between
.025 and .050, then for awhile above .050. The notion being that a lot of
operators have "comfort zones" which they hang out in, so rotating through
those three "zones" likely exposes you to more operators.
