As they have money, they do a much better job than a few volunteers.
While I'm on this thread, I just wanted to respond to this. I don't think it's necessarily true that people with money will do a better job than a few volunteers. I don't think there are any London sites that are conclusively better than RGL, for example. Although there are some that are better in some ways (generally coverage), they're less good in others (generally data quality, signal-to-noise ratio).
Tupalo may of course be the one that finally breaks out of the crowd! But in general, I don't think domm's assertion is true.
