I the DX station was upset about the multi-band/mode contacts they would
stop them! In some ways I think they promote them by setting these high qso
objectives and then showing how they beat them.
IMO the issue isn't the multi-multi contacts, its that people just ignore
courtesy and logic in working these expeditions. In other words, I don't
think its the DXpedition irritation but the frustration of those trying to
get a contact with them.
