Bob,

You're preaching to the choir here, so I've cc'ed this message to the CQ-Contest reflector where the contesting community hangs out!

  I do a lot of contesting. I'm not very good at it, but still make a lot of 
  qso's - mostly in "search and pounce" mode. If allowed, I normally use 
  packet clusters. My cluster program (Spotcollector/DxLAB) highlights any 
  spots which are LoTW users.

  Guess which stations are VERY high on my list to work? You got it - the LoTW 
  guys. Since I'm in Delaware, I often represent a semi-rare multiplier and 
  extra points. I would imagine there are many casual contesters who also 
  place a priority on LoTW "friendly" stations.

  It would be great if we could get the word out to the contesting community 
  that LoTW participation has fringe benefits - better scores.
