I can agree with VP5 and C6 being difficult - only one RTTY QSO with each
entity here, both back in 2005. The Caribbean is generally quite easy from
here, especially on 40m...

EI however is nowhere near that rare - I have RTTY QSOs with EI on 40, 30,
20 17 and 15m over the past few years... 23 QSOs in all over the past 5
years, the most recent being with EI1DG on 17m in February 2010.

Interesting. I have just one VP5 on RTTY, more than five years ago,
which would seem to confirm your observation.
