QSL INFO -

CRIMEA & DXCC
Upon request of the CEO, the ARRL Awards committee evaluated the
situation at present in Crimea against the DXCC rules. As the
interpreter of the rules, the following is the Awards Committee's
decision on how to "count" QSOs with stations operating from Crimea.
Crimea is not a DXCC entity. Neither Russia nor Ukraine is a rare
entity and the vast majority of confirmations used for DXCC credit
for either entity do not involve Crimea.
DXCC Rule 4 reads:
"4. Confirmation data for two-way communications must include the
call signs of both stations, the entity name as shown in the DXCC
List, mode, date, time and band. Except as permitted in Rule 1,
cross-mode contacts are not permitted for DXCC credits.
Confirmations not containing all required information may be
rejected."
A QSL with a call sign issued by the administration of Ukraine and
showing the entity name as Ukraine counts as Ukraine.
A QSL with a call sign issued by the administration of Russia and
showing the entity name as Russia counts as Russia.
A QSL that satisfies neither condition does not count for either
entity.
