[CQ-Contest] Harvesting Mults in CQWW as an SO1R

[Pete Smith]

Looking at my CQWWCW score, I'm struck by how big the gap is between my
multiplier counts and those of the stations above me on the leader board.
Even if I only consider the stations that don't say they're SO2R (I suspect
some, at least, are but didn't check the box),  I still lag.

For each of the last two years, I have concentrated on running (not a bad
idea for the East Coast, I think), but found myself playing catch-up on
Sunday trying to get some mults in the log.  This year I had the added
handicap of incapacitating line noise on 80 and 40 (to some extent), but
mults on 20 and 15 were both down from last year too.

Is there a better way for a SO1R station to harvest multipliers?  What do
YOU do?
