Not on a weekly basis, but they do run software to determine potential clashes for final coordination recommendations. Remember, the HFCC is a coordination committee and not a watchdog organization. Nor are they in the business of assigning frequencies. It is up to the station to accept an HFCC recommendation, and then some do what they want anyway. As for regular reception tweaks, initial schedules are determined by a good lot of broadcasters using very sophisticated software. The VOA and DW have developed such things. Most stations then use a combination of human and remote monitoring systems (and reception reports) to help determine if incremental frequency changes should be made over the course of a season *for a particular target area*.
