I watched this as well. A I could see OCCASIONALLY between the constant US
calls was a QRZ de VU2WAP?
Most time these US stations were right on top when the VU was
transmitting....Here's a snippet of what I saw in just 3 minutes of
operation (straight off the mixw screen):

VU2WAP DE KU4J KU4J KU4J KU4J BK
AI2Q AI2UPNPKCQ AI2Q

These guys weren't listening -- some like AI2Q were just sending constantly
KU4J would send repeatedly after the others sent...
Particularly disturbing were the 3 lines by 5 calls of AI1Q -- he wasn't
going to let anyone else call....
looks like Tim was one of the guys calling! (or maybe someone used his
callsign?)
I never saw the 5 call...probably in skip zone? And at no time was any VU
copy showing a EU only (although the calls worked were all EU earlier).
Maybe these guys didn't see the EU? But that still does not explain the rude
behavior.

Or are they an SSB DXer who has gotten on RTTY and retained all the bad
habits all to often heard on 14195??
