He is sure getting a lot of flak on the spotting sites.  As you know I'm not a 
fan of FT8 but I can't really fault him for using the mode.  I would like him on 
CW, which would put me closer to Honor Roll, but the crowd was so rowdy, he 
called it quits.  Frankly I can't imagine trying to manage a CW pileup.  A team 
of 15 guys would probably find it challenging and there is only one of him.

He is very limited in what antennas he can have; no beams allowed.  Although he 
will be there for three months I've read that he actually only has permission to 
operate for 30 days So keep after it.
