I agree on that.
Why not 1 point between the US states.
In size they can be compared with the countries in Europe.

For large stations with monobanders/ stacks it may be less of an issue but for average or small stations this contest is often a very slow 48hr adventure from W6. Years 2006 and 2007 were especially low on QSO numbers.
