[CQ-Contest] CQ WPX Contest SSB 2020 Raw Scores now Online

I did not notice the NA sort of the raw scores until your post. This  
works well but with so many awards for US op's an additional US tab  
would be nice. The finial results will have a very nice sorting menu.  
Regarding the scoring, it is pretty unlikely that a US station will  
have the world high score in WPX, even in the major single band  
categories. It was worse before they changed the rules and gave a  
point for in country contacts. This made WPX a fun and strategic  
contest!

This early info is always a good deal for the contesting community, thank you.

But why can't there be a tab for "USA" top scores instead of lumping  
them in with "NA"
where seven of the top ten were VE's ? It is all too obvious that the  
WPX scoring system
is stacked against W/K stations competing against non-W/K. It is  
absurdly stacked
against W/K stations not on the East coast.

People contest for many reasons, but getting into the Top Ten is  
always a great feeling.
If the contest playing field can't/won't be leveled, how about giving  
credit where it is due?
