Joe I get your point, 9 BWAS JT65 so I'm used to getting flattened by almost every other mode including SSB on 40m, but to penalize a station for operating in a certain frequency range won't work. If you're going that route make sure to get a list of ALL the frequencies the unattended stations "own" so they can be avoided as well, never know when one of them will fire up and you better not be on their channel. That should pretty much limit the operating space to a few kHz for RTTY. The best solution is to have one of the JT guys switch modes to RTTY and politely tell the errant op what's going on, that's how I discovered the JT modes, and a nice follow up email with details
and links will go a long way to ease the situation.

If RTTY contesters can't learn to voluntarily avoid the widely
published centers of activity for other modes, then contest sponsors
need to start requiring frequencies in the log and counting QSOs
between xx.070 and xx.080 at zero points.
