US State / VE Province / DXCC Country is not necessary in message.
You have other means to find out that multiplier: Callbook CD,
Prefix in call-sign or ask the station during contact.
Perhaps, but I like this addition. Many stations will be using low
power, with which it can be exciting to work someone even in the
next state! The mystery of where a station is located -- revealed
during a contact -- has always been at the core of the radio
experience for me, especially when using QRP.
The power of other station is not essential. It is your power that
counts.
Good point. An exchange of power levels is, again, rooted in
low-power contests. It's interesting, but I would say that this is
the most expendable part of the exchange.
If I may make a suggestion: Exchange locators and power: 599 jo33ab 5W
Points are then miles/kilometers per watt.
One could also fool with idea of the points being:
(distance * (PowerOtherStation + PowerMyStation) / 2)
