Hi Stan, 

Hey-thanks for setting me straight on that. Guess I won't be doing too many
single band contests then, hi !
I think 10m is on its way out anyhow.

Thanks for the quick and informative reply.  Makes sense the way you
describe it, so I have no idea why anyone would do single band *IF* they
were competing for WRTC pts.

Mike,

No.  If you made 1,000,000 points in a single band entry and the winner of
the all band category had 5,000,000 points and the maximum number of points
was 1,000 you would get 200 points.
