RUSSIAN DX CONTEST - 2021, Weekend of 3/21.

“I am often asked how radio works. Well, you see, wire telegraphy
is like a very long cat. You yank his tail in New York and he
meows in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? Now, radio is
exactly the same, except that there is no cat.”
-Attributed to Albert Einstein, but I ripped it from the latest Splatter .PDF March 2025 issue.

Thanks for the heads up. Haven't worked any Russian stations in a while. Hopefully I can snag one over the weekend.

It was pretty much a bust out here, sadly. The conditions/propagation just weren't up to it. I heard Lithuania and Serbia, barely, but they couldn't hear me.

Anyone do any better?
