A little late but congratulations on the NOA2 :D

Personally I'm not sure about the effectiveness of constant calling and think it does little more than add to an already stressful situation, especially if you've already resigned yourself to a long stint in the US on a tourist visa. I too am in the US at the moment and am having to hold off on sending my docs/AOS stuff in to NVC otherwise my interview will come up long before I get back to the UK.
