I remember hearing a ZS4 station working everyone except the U.S. on 
21.198 or so.  Later he did move above 21.200.  Maybe he wanted to 
practice working a pile up before the sharks could attack.
What gets me is how some of these U.S. stations keep yelling their last 
two over and over, sometimes covering up the DX when he is coming back 
to someone, then when the DX does come back, someone has to tell them 
the DX is calling them. A TANGO TANGO comes to mind.
