Maybe yes, maybe no.  They *are* limited by the number of signals they can have
on each band, with inter-station interference, etc.

They do seem to make some dumb choices - 10m and 12m RTTY?  Come on - surely
there is a better use for that station.

They have been scarce on 20/30/40m RTTY when the bands are open to W1/W2/W3,
i.e. 11-13Z.

Still, I am pleased with the overall operation, despite my lone RTTY QSO on 17
meters.  They seem to be putting in the hours to work EU, a difficult path,
especially during this part of the cycle.
