You also need to remember that the scoring analysis is done with prior 
operating habits and rules in mind.  For example, I don't consciously work 
more than 1 K station on each band except to grab the K mult or a zone mult. 
If W6s were worth 3 points, I'd be working them half of the afternoon.  It 
certainly would make operating at night more interesting.  Similar to IARU I 
would think.

I have to add the follow factor(s) for this 'clever' topic:

* In HP cathegory need to difference between powers (somewhere the power 
limit is 400 Watts - this is big handicap in 1500 Watts cathegory...sri, I 
mean OM-Power 4000 Watts cathegory... :)

Bonus steps (by 500 Watts) would be:

DX QSO with 500 W: 3 x 1.2 points
.
DX QSO with 1000 W: 3 x 1.1 points
.
DX QSO with 1500 W: 3 x 1.0 points
.
DX QSO with 4000 W: 3 x 0 points
.
DX QSO with 10 kW: 3 x 00 points

* IMHO, need to difference between antenna system:
(under construction :)
