Yes, I'd welcome this in any of the rsgb HF contests- something to add
a bit more strategy than just brute force "work as many people as
possible".   Add in a locator exchange and then have radial ring or
scoring per kilometer aka vhf contests?   Or even just exchange
postcodes and have a multiplier.  Something to introduce a bit of
strategy into how you work the contest.

I was sorry to miss the November 160 with the district exchange (away
in France - beaujolais noveau weekend :-) but hope to be on for the feb
one.
