Simple. Europe is a far easier path to the U.S. than central Asia is
and RBN spots are a function of how many stations hear the DX, not how
many contacts the DX has made.

Dear Experts,
I created a quick statistics sheet on RBN figures of the ARRL DX CW contest.
I took 4 SOSB 20M stations: HG0Y, HG5E, TM4W and UA9YBA.
Here is how many times they were spotted by RBN in North America:
HG0Y: 14236
HG5E: 16648
TM4W: 16223
UA9YBA: 4918
According to 3830scores.com and contestonlinescore.com pages these are the
QSO numbers:
HG0Y: 1005
HG5E: 902
TM4W: 1139
UA9YBA: 967
My question: how could it be that three stations were spotted by RBN three
times more than UA9YBA?
I listened to UA9YBA at the end of the contest and his CQ was absolutely
correct: "CQ UA9YBA UA9YBA TEST".
