As much as I love the Roundup, this and the lack of band multipliers are
it's primary failings, IMO.
Can't please everybody, I know, but as Shelby says, incentive really can
make a difference. I'd like to see a RTTY contest where points are
awarded on distance between grid locators, similar to the Stew Perry
160m Challenge. If I weren't so lazy, I'd do it myself. :-)
