I also found them to be more difficult to work than I would have expected.
Like others have said, when they were loudest here on 160m and 40m, they
were calling "CQ JA" ...very frustrating.  I understood the emphasis on
Europe.

Although I am definitely no expert on how things should work on the "low
bands" I have to to along with what Zach had said about gray line
strategies.  I realize however, that they did have problems with their
receive.  Perhaps, too, expectations were high because we all know that the
operators there are of a very high caliber, and I would agree, too, that
they overextended themselves.  I did manage to work them on 80m, 20m and
15m, so I can't really complain, and hope that there were several people who
got a new one out of this expedition.  Perhaps we got spoiled after the
Kingman Reef operation.  =)
