Wow. Congratulations on such a long history.

CW Contacts are worth 2 points per QSO on 80 meters and 160 meters, and
1.5 points on 40 and above.

I'm just curious about the rationale for this point structure, as I've
never seen this kind of scoring. Is the idea to encourage activity on
80 and 160?

In 2009, the 1.5 point CW QSOs are going away. At that point, all CW
QSOs will be worth 2 points.

This seems much more reasonable to me.
