I would offer that all low power records be cast in stone and a completely
new set be created. As you point out, the 50 watt difference is huge and
not just on the low bands!
Ah, the allusion to the importance of records, the eternal enemy of
needed change to contesting scoring rules by those to whom those rules
give massive advantages. Monumental changes in radio conditions, the
many crutches that technology provides to make those records easily
broken, make most records meaningless! BTW -- 1.75 dB is significant,
but to call it "huge" is a bit overboard! Huge is the 25 dB difference
between 5W and 1,500W.
