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.

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
