Zero Points I am not sure that it would be such a good idea to award points for intra country contacts. With double points for low band contacts it could turn this DX contest into just another US domestic test. Maybe look the other way. Zero points for QSO's in the same continent. Better still from a VK/ZS perspective zero points for QSO's in the same hemisphere defined by the location of the equator! Off periods It will not surprise anyone that I support Trey in his comments on the WPX 36 hour rather than 30 hour single operator format. I still believe strongly that 30 hours makes a more interesting contest from a strategic viewpoint. You really must get the tactics right to optimise the score. It evens out the competition around different regions of the world and reduces the advantage to those who can sit in the "perfect" location and run pile ups for 48 hours.
