My best scores even with most multipliers are in contest were I did Run
most of the time.
In 48 hours contests like the ARRL DX most of the multipliers come back
to the cq's.
In S&P just scanning the band gives more qso's and mults than hopping
from spot to spot.
Assisted is not always better. Maybe skimmer will change this, but I am
not so sure about that.
