[CQ-Contest] Russian DX contest

[Igor Sokolov]

Hi Guy and all,
Below is some statistics of W7RN SOAB CW  in RDXC last year. I think you can
do better then that especially working more Russian stations on 20 and 40m
Sure this contest could be more interesting for NA if there were more
participants from the USA and Canada. Still it is a lot more fun for you in
the US then ARRL from here. I only managed 500 QSO in 48 hours whith really
huge setup (Stacks from 40 and up, 3el full size on 80 and bevereges 320m
long). Unlike ARRL,  you are allowed to work everybody in RDXC including
your own country.
BTW W7RN won 03 ZONE single operator OVERALL score.
