I think you're looking at the magic of propagation at work.

Also, my path to that part of Russia goes further north than the path to
western or central Europe, and geomagnetic conditions this weekend were
disturbed.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] RBN question
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".
