[CQ-Contest] WAEDC Rules error?

[Igor Sokolov]

Hello Axel,

Still it was a lot easier and simpler when all of RA9 where counted for 
Asia.

On the other note I want to take a chance and thank you very much for 
excellent WRTC in Germany. It was really really well done!

Congratulations and thanks.
