What difference does it matter who paid for the station?? Presumably 
you're concerned about some station owner having deeper pockets than you 
have, but I can't imagine the can of worms that you'd be opening if you 
tried to tier results by how much somebody paid for their station since 
that concern would have nothing to do with who actually paid for it.  
Hams who contest from their own stations range from those who are 
unemployed to retired millionaires.

My email client flagged your post as junk mail, by the way. Software 
keeps getting smarter and smarter ...
