There is no module for this contest. Try using the Russian DX Contest module instead of the Russian RTTY WW module because the RTTY WW module prefills the zone for non-Russian calls in the Entry Window.
On the other hand, the Russian DX Contest module prefills Russian oblasts for Russian calls in the Entry window and the RCVD entry is empty on non-Russian calls. Also, the RTTY module does not allow export to Cabrillo (the Cabrillo option is grayed out) while the Cabrillo file option is available in the Russian DX Contest module. After the contest, you can export to Cabrillo then edit the file to put the proper contest name (which is CONTEST: RUS-WW-DIGI). There is a sample of the Cabrillo header they are looking for on the rules page here:

(Yes, there is a comma at the end of the URL). If this link doesn't work for you, there is one on the home page of rttycontesting.com.
I have no idea how this module will work on RTTY but it's worth a try. You may want to play with it as much as you can. I don't plan on participating but I will set this up to see if it works. It probably doesn't score the contest correctly but you could Google the Russian DX Contest rules to see what the differences are.

Any RTTY module for this?
Tried the Russian RTTY WW module, but the points dont seem correct.
