    Finally got a confirmation just outside of Moscow, which should give me the award for continents. I just needed on confirmed in Asia.

    The funny thing is under other awards, it is showing the confirmed QSO.

    How do I fix this?

    You need to work and confirm a station in "Asiatic Russia".

    The part of Russia where Moscow is located is "European Russia" and for ham radio purposes as defined ages ago by The ARRL, there are two Russias. The two are divided by the Ural Mountains. Everything to the West is "European Russia" and to the East is "Asiatic Russia".

    No doubt you have confirmed the QSO, and for other awards, "Russia is Russia" - but for the majority of the various Continents awards around the world including QRZ and ARRL, there are "two Russias" - European, and Asiatic.

    Thanks for clarifying that for me. I was wondering what the story was.
