 With Russia massing the bulk of its military and surrounding the independent nation of Ukraine over the last many weeks, leader Vladimir Putin has fired what those in the Amateur Radio Community consider to be the first shot in this coming war.
A Putin spokesman has stated that among the first order of business, post invasion, will be to discontinue the use of current Ukraine callsign prefixes EM-EO and UR-UZ and replace them with a good solid Russian prefix in the range of RA-RZ or UA-UI. Thus Amateur Radio will be changed forever. The World Wide DXCC chasing community is in complete disarray as loss of Ukraine will threaten Awards and Endorsements causing delays of several days in fulfilling DXCC requirements. Currently all Yagi's are pointing towards Ukraine as last ditched attempts to log a QSO are at a fevered pitch on all HF bands as complete jamming of the spectrum by Russian military forces is considered imminent. It is widely known that Putin was denied his DXCC many years ago during his time in the KGB and has never forgiven or forgotten this traumatic moment in his life and now seeks revenge on former Soviet Republics like Ukraine.
