I don´t believe that half of the participants are in Turkmenistan. If not licensed they are not allowed to transmit anywhere. So all stations from region 1 transmitting below 1810kHz should be disqualified.

In Turkmenistan, for example, no licenses are issued at all ... And the real situation is as follows - almost all participants in contests from Europe and Asia cannot use frequencies below 1810. We see that half of the participants are in unequal conditions.
