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.

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.

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.
