[CQ-Contest] Russian DX Contest

[Christian Schneider]

Other idea is exchange
59(9) 2402
and submitting either checklog or no log.
The operator on the other side - whose opinions and positions are unknown - won't get penalized when going with "log what was sent" - and can insert 2402 in recvd exchange field of software expecting a number.
No boycott, but a message when intendend to do so.
And no - real world atrocities are too big and overwhelming to claim hamradio as being the untouched bubble of friendliness. Business as usual doesn't feel too good simply when thinking about the dimension of the fate of Ukranians and Ukrainian hams.
73, Chris DL8MBS

I thought about skipping the Russian DX Contest this weekend but this is my last week before returning to Arkansas.  Skipping it would have no impact on anything except for me missing my last opportunity on this trip to do something I had planned to do.

Instead my F3 message in N1MM will be programmed to send  something like <<<<No War >>> TU ZF9CW.  That will likely have more impact than not working the contest especially if a lot of others did the same.

I have no idea what the activity will be.  I didn’t have a single UA call me in the Spring Stew Perry Contest this weekend and out of about 300 logs there are only two Russian submissions.

73… Stan, ZF9CW
