Actually it is known as Transnistria or Transdniester and it is located
on the Eastern edge of Moldova between the Dniester River and the border
between Moldova and Western Ukraine. It actually predates the
activities in Eastern Ukraine.
How have we as hams or contest sponsors handled similar situations in
the past?
