*As usual, some reported basic country multipliers and some reported the
multipliers as multiplier by band factors, so those that are high and
those that are low can't be directly compared. I think that N4PN, N4GG,
and N4DU reported basic country multipliers. If the band factors had
been included, their multiplier total would be more than twice what they
reported.
