On June, 12th, annually the Russian Digital Radioamateur Club invites to celebrate our national holiday the Day of Russia to play with colleagues in «Russian DOMINO». We announce the Days of Activity «Russian DOMINO» for all amateurs of digital modes from 15:00 UTC on June, 11th till 20:59 UTC on June, 12th 2024. You can use any DOMINO, but we recommend in 2024 - DominoEX4 or DominoEX11 - on all 9 HF bands in DOMINO mode. Specifically, we recommend everybody to work in the following frequencies: 1.840-1.843; 3.582-3.600; 7.042-7.050; 10.141-10.145; 14.071-14.073 and 14.105-14.110; 18.104-18.106; 21.071-21.074 and 21.105-21.110; 24.922-24.926; 28.070-28.074.

Dupe QSOs are counted on different bands. We recommend to work short QSOs with the following minimum information exchange: RSQ, name, locator.
We sum up the results in a few subgroups in which participants do not need to be declared, as the organizers will form themselves a subgroup on the basis of data from the logbooks.
Subgroup "DOUBLE 6": 6 х 6 = 36 QSO - the subgroup of participants who worked at least 6 QSO in DOMINO on each of any 6 (7, 8 or 9) bands. |
|
Subgroup "DOUBLE 5": 5 x 5 = 25 QSO - the subgroup of participants who worked at least 5 QSO in DOMINO on each of any 5 bands. |
|
Subgroup "DOUBLE 4": 4 x 4 = 16 QSO - the subgroup of participants who worked at least 4 QSO in DOMINO on each of any 4 bands. |
|
Subgroup "DOUBLE 3": 3 x 3 = 9 QSO - the subgroup of participants who worked at least 3 QSO in DOMINO on each of any 3 bands. |
|
Subgroup "DOUBLE 2": 2 x 2 = 4 QSO - the subgroup of participants who worked at least 2 QSO in DOMINO on each of any 2 bands. |
|
Subgroup "DOUBLE 1": 1 x 1 = 1 QSO - the subgroup of participants who worked at least 1 QSO in DOMINO on one band. |
|
Subgroup "DOUBLE 0": 0 x 0 = 0 QSO - a subgroup for SWL. |
Thus, actually game in "Russian DOMINO" will be held in six subgroups, and the seventh subgroup for SWL.
