Another good one , over 10 percent , was vu7 and vu4. The op for the most part
was NAN VU2NKS on rtty. That's very good for one op working rtty.
You can find NAN on most days for new bands. I worked NAN on 80m for new band.

Specific bands get up to 18 percent per clublog.

Right on the nail.
The last multi-mode trip I went on ended up with 35K QSOs, 7K on RTTY. That was
with just one RTTY op for much of the time and without any priority on the best
bands. Peak rates were over 100 per hour for long periods. These big operations
with 4 or more stations running should keep 1 station on RTTY all the time, not
just work a few hours in the last few days.
VK0EK did not use the leaderboard but it was easy to see what was happening in
those last days. I checked a list of stations as they were worked, at a time
when there were 4 CW stations active and nothing else. Out of 20 callsigns, 19
of them already had more than 10 bandslots. There must be a way to let more of
the smaller stations get just 1 contact for an ATNO.

By settling for 10% we sell digital DXing short. I agree that RTTY will
probably never reach 33% as there will be very little time and resources given
to RTTY on the low bands. However, those chasing a DXpedition for ATNO or band
credit should not care which mode they work.
A well run DXpedition, with quality RTTY operators, good antennas and decent
propagation should be able to generate peak rates of 2 - 3 QSOs per minute,
similar to what they can do on other modes. Getting 20 to 25% RTTY QSOs is
only a matter or *expectations* - making DXpedition planners treat RTTY as an
integral part of the operation and not as an afterthought as it is in nearly
every case and making those who chase DXCC Challenge/Toplist realize they may
need to use multiple modes.
The real problem is the "Leaderboard" ... DXpeditions spend too much time and
resources on Phone/CW on the "middle" bands (20/17/15) and not enough resources
on balancing opportunities for RTTY (and in some cases low band QSOs). The
goal of any DXPedition should be to allow everyone who desires, one QSO per
mode and one QSO per band (between
9 and 11 QSOs *maximum*) ... not 20 to 25 "band/mode" slots as we see in many
cases with some of the DX Hogs.
