Hmmm, I'm one of those that find it hard to work a non-UK station, but recently one or two have popped up and I was left feeling 'shame I can't get a multiplier for that'.
I think this is a good compromise, if we can manage to work the odd F or PA, we get some advantage - but it's only going to be 4 or 5 at best I would guess.
Are we saying a point per country or a point per prefix?
