[CQ-Contest] Nasty Cheerleading in favor of R36F

[Barry]

UA9BA spotted R36F 13 times.  He spotted other WRTC stations a maximum 
of 6 times.
UA9CDC spotted R36F 14 times.  He spotted one other WRTC stations a 
maximum of 3 times, and others 0, once, or twice.  Seems to be more than 
a statistical anomaly.

Proximity?  Take a look at a prefix map, Hans.  UA9 is far from Moscow.
