[UK-CONTEST] Feb 144 UKAC

[Ray James]

If we make the contacts the squares will come along at the same time so they don't need to be a multiplier to be important.
The emphasis would purely be on working as many stations as possible and top down scores based on how many Km you could accumulate in 2.5 hours.
No skewing effect from external sources, may the best man really win.

Maybe it should not be worth enough to skew the result in favour of someone working 28000km over 35000km total but the challenge of the search for the multipliers has to be worth a little? Perhaps excluding all adjacent squares as multipliers might be an option? And of course working GM on any VHF and Up band is a real challenge from my modest site and always gives me a buzz.
